Hi ladies, this is my first real post & am finding it difficult to explain how I feel (or dnt feel).

I have been diagnosed for a few weeks & have surgery booked for Wednesday but I hardly feel any emotion as in worry or fear in fact I'm more concerned about putting my grown up family & husband through it all. I'm not in denial as I accept I have BC & know what surgery & treatment to expect but just dnt think my lack of emotion is normal.

Have any of you lovely ladies had this experience. 

  • Hi. I've been in a similar position. Only cried once... I should have started chemo last week but postponed due to dental work...

    I worry more about not worrying (if you know what I mean)

    This site is great for getting things out xx

    Hi. I know what you mean i was diagnosed afew weeks ago and only cried when they had to postpone my surgery.. It feels abit surreal but accept i have BC like you said...

    I dont think we lack emotion but maybe just have a different perspective on it for ourselves? but then maybe we have our "meltdown" later?? who knows.. 

    I think its important to just keep doing what feels right for you xx

    What a shame your surgery had to be postponed think that cld send you into panic mode. Hope your surgery & treatment starts soon. Xx

  • I am quite relieved to read your post as I feel very similar.   It is what it is, this is treatable and I will manage this.  I've cried once shortly after the full diagnosis, but other wise I am very positive and pragmatic and feeling generally ok.

    i guess we all deal with things in different ways and that's ok
