Newly diagnosed

Hi,

Sorry to see you here, but there is lots of support here. You are not being impatient, the waiting at the start is awful - we've all felt it. If it helps, once you have a confirmed plan, it feels much better. 

Sending hugs

It’s really hard enduring this waiting.

i found all I could do was do things to distract myself for periods of time, but accept that the thoughts would quickly come in to my head when not distracted. It does give a bit of relief though from being preoccupied with it all the time x

Sorry you have been diagnosed and now starting this roller coaster of a journey. I am 4 months in, post surgery and radiotherapy and on hormone treatment. The main advice I can give is take it day by day, don’t look too far ahead and try not to worry about things that may not happen. I quickly realised that I would not google anything as you only seem to read terrible scenarios. So I focused only on what the medical team around me said. Day by day….and hopefully all will be well, sort of, but it’s a long hard road and you have to learn that life will never return to what it was. You will just be a new you. Sending you positive vibes and a huge hug xx

I’ve just been diagnosed. That is great advice. Thank you x
