HI.
I don't know how to help myself. I've had breast cancer surgery and I'm now waiting to start chemo (that was a surprise because it wasn't mentioned when I agreed tomsurgery). I feel at a low ebb. I can't get stuck into anything , my mind empties itself. I have a parcel here to post and 80 yards to the PO but I can't seem to focus on anything. I'm sure it's entirely normal to feel like this; I just wish there was a magic solution.
Hi Daisy2001
Welcome to the forum and sorry to hear that you were diagnosed with breast cancer and that you have to have chemo. It's completely normal to feel at a low ebb while waiting to start chemo, but hopefully once you start things should start to feel better for you once you start your treatment. There is a chemo forum you can join to get help and advice about your treatment. The following is the link: :Chemotherapy forum.
Wishing you the best of luck with your treatment when it starts.
Best wishes
