HI, welcome to the group. I am sorry to hear about your diagnosis and the waiting for the results - it can be the hardest part to wait for the results and your treatment plan. There's lots of help and advice on here and I hope you find it a huge support to you as you go through your treatment. xx
Hi Zadi welcome sorry you have had to join this group but you will find everyone really helpful and supportive whether you want to just have a good moan or ask advice there is always someone on the end of the line I hope you don't have to wait to long for your results and that your treatment goes ok sending cyber hugs xxxD
he probably doesn't mean to be unsupportive he is probably just trying to adjust to the situation and not knowing how to help you so going for the head in the sand approach my children are a bit the same unless I say I need help they just carry on their lives as normal but as soon as I say I need help they are there do you have anyone else you can talk to to get the support you need at mo till your husband come round
You can tell us your worrys we may not always be able to help or physically give you the hugs you need but we can listen understand and tell you our story's it does help

Hi Zadi
Welcome and sorry you're needing to be here. I'm fairly new too and I am waiting on CT scan results after positive breast lump and lymph nodes result. Hopefully your husband will be less pessimistic once he processes things. My husband has not been negative but is sleeping even worse than I am.
Best Wishes
