Hi, I’m new here.
I was diagnosed with breast cancer in March of last year. In April I had a lumpectomy but it was found that the cancer had spread and so in May I had a mastectomy followed by radiotherapy in September.
I could not believe how much that wiped me out. I have ME (Chronic Fatigue Syndrome) to start with. I thought that when I had recovered from the radiotherapy I would feel elated that the cancer had gone and the treatment was finished, but I don’t. I don’t feel that I’ve recovered yet and feel quite tearful at times. I suffer from clinical depression and have been on the highest dose of my antidepressant for a number of years now.
I am currently trying to get my Letrozole changed as it is really causing pain in my joints which are bad to start with and other female problems which I won’t go into.
I am wondering if anyone else is feeling this way when their treatment is finished.
