Hi Bubbles151
Welcome to the forum. It's great that you've found yourself to this supportive space.
Sounds like you've had really quick treatment following your diagnosis. I'm not sure how you're feeling about everything but I imagine you have a full plate.
I'm not sure which surgery you had or whether you're having further treatment.
I was diagnosed last Feb. I found it's taken me a bit of time to process things, and deal with my diagnosis and treatment.
Are you feeling ready to return to work? Are you able to receive any form of sick pay, if you'd like to take some more time?
Please keep in touch with the forum, I have found it very supportive. Ask any questions you have, I and others will be sure to answer.
Take good care, sending all the hugs, Shaka
