Hello i am also very recently diagnosed with breast cancer oestrogen receptor positive, HER2 negative i am still waiting to find out the stage and exact treatment plan which i will find out on Friday although i know its definitely surgery and then hormone therapy with chemo possibly. I have two young children and know exactly how scary and devastating it feels.
Hello Mummy Bear80,
This really is a great supportive forum. I hope Friday goes as well as can be. It’s an idea to take a companion. I also took a notebook with questions I wanted to ask and jot things down. It’s not always easy remembering everything at the time. The most important thing is you have a diagnosis and your treatment can begin. Take care x
Thankyou so much yes i will take some notes down and any questions i have aswell. I will have some biopsy results aswell to see if it has spread to my lymph nodes that side so keeping everything crossed but will deal with that if need be... I hope you are all doing ok aswell :)
