Hello all l am new to this but would love to share experiences. I have had three lots of surgery .Began with lumpectomy and lymph node biopsy. Then wider clearance with lymph node clearance. Finally mastectomy 7 weeks ago.First diagnosed last Sept after routine mammogram. Had treatment plan for chemo and radiotherapy which looks scary. Waiting for port to be fitted before can begin. I would love to know has anyone had similar?
Thanks
Hi Lyndy loo
Welcome to the forum and sorry to hear that you have been diagnosed with breast cancer. Do you know what chemo drugs you are having? There is a chemo thread on this forum that you can tap into if you want to get information from the ladies who have been through or are going through chemo. You will find plenty of help and advice from the ladies on the thread. You will find the thread under Diagnosis and treatment part of the Breast Cancer forum. It’s called **december2021 - March breast cancer chemo.**
Wishing you the best of luck with your treatment when it starts.
Best wishes
