Newby here no idea how this even works of if I’ll be able to chat/reply to anyone I’m a total dinosaur with on line stuff.
Anyway just told today I have hormone positive breast cancer operation to remove the lump and lymph nodes for biopsy in January. Getting another biopsy on Thursday for a few spots that need checked. Actually pretty calm about it all or possibly numb. Certainly can’t sleep
We have an awake thread ! Sorry you find yourself here but lots of ladies & a few gents to talk to. You will soon get the hang of. Thread started by Londonlass many years ago. I've linked you to last page. It will take far too much to try to read back so people join in by hitting reply to last message and just say Hi. No such thing as silly question/fear etc. Here's rate link
Hi Ffs
Welcome to the forum and I am sorry to hear that you have been diagnosed with breast cancer. I see that Grogg has directed you the Awake Thread, I use that thread as well and everyone is very friendly and welcoming.
Wishing you the best of luck with whatever treatment your medical team will put you on.
Best wishes
