  1. Hi my name is Tracey, I was diagnosed with breast cancer last week it is the second cancer I have been diagnosed with in two years I had anal cancer last year and got through it but I am so scared with being diagnosed with this cancer can anyone give some advice many thanks for reading my story 
  • Really sorry to hear about your BC, you got through anal cancer so I am sure you can get through BC, once you know what type of cancer you have and your treatment plan post it and other amazing women will offer you support and advice.  Love from Ann

  • Hi Tracey, I too have been diagnosed with breast cancer and am in that limbo land until we know the type and how to deal with it. Extremely scary, anxious time!! What I keep telling myself is something the nurse said to me “if I had to choose a cancer to have, it would be breast cancer as it is soooo treatable now”. If you got through anal cancer you have to muster up the strength to get through this too. Like so many others have said on here, the waiting is the worst part but we are all here for you. Xx

  • Thank you for your kind words, I was told the cancer is in the ducts and not in the surrounding tissue 

  • I have been told the cancer is in the ducts and not in the surrounding tissue and have been told I will have a lumpectomy and a couple of lymph nodes taken.
