    Hi Ben Hi welcome to the forum. I imagine that it will have been extremely stressful for you over the lasts few weeks waiting to see what is going to happen for you and what the plan is. Throughout all that time I imagine it would be high octane adrenaline filled and stressful. I also imagine that your sleep pattern may have been affected as well and could still be. Combined, all of the above could be contributing to you feeling tired as the day wears on.

    How you feeling about the impending surgery?xxx

  • Hi Ben hi, sorry to hear you have BC, you are in the right place for support and advice, no wonder you feel washed out you have been through a lot, a cancer diagnosis is a really scary place to be and takes a lot of getting your head around, the waiting for things to happen is the hardest and coming to terms with loosing you breast is on it's own, really hard.  One day at a time, you are not alone.  Love Ann
