Just diagnosed

Am so sorry you have been diagnosed with cancer. The waiting is the hardest part even though it is so important to know exactly what the cancer is, in order to give you the right treatment. There are a lot of stories about waiting on here and how to get through it. I found near constant company, walks, an unachievable to do list (so I was never short of something to do) and being out in the fresh air all helped me. Improving our fitness can help us deal with whatever cancer treatment we need, if we can manage to do that. I also called my BCN and the macmillan helpline (more than once) to help me through it. I really feel for you and hope you can find a way through the next couple of weeks. This group is really friendly and supportive and has useful advice.

I can only imagine how you are feeling. The problem of waiting is much worse than anything, I was diagnosed in Feb  2022 and the waiting was so awful it was waiting to be murdered!!! It is all ok , you will be ok as all the treatments are so advanced now for breast cancer.

I am on my first chemo and was terrified, it has been nothing like I expected , I am on the EC and it has been fine. I used the cold cap and now on day 18 I have lost some of my hair , maybe 25%, so still staying as positive as I  can be.Next cycle next week. 

Thank you .I know you are right. I try to keep myself busy and work full-time.it is not easy to concentrate but I know it is better to know what type it is so I can get the right treatment. I have just started to tell some of my family I went for the tests and results by myself as I did not want to worry them ..it is good to have somewhere like this where other people go through the same thing hopefully they can tell me what type I have on 27th then can start treatment
