Hi Virgo
Welcome to the forum and I am sorry to hear that you have been diagnosed with breast cancer. It's perfectly understandable that you are feeling overwhelmed as life is a roller coaster once you have been diagnosed with all the pre-treatment tests you have to undergo so your medical team can give you the best possible treatment. It's good though that things have moved so swiftly. Once you have your treatment plan things should start to get better for you.
Best of luck with your operation in the new year and with whatever further treatment your medical come up with.
Best wishes
