Diagnosed with breast cancer on Monday. There are 2 lumps. I’ve had x3 biopsy. CT scan yesterday. I delayed going to the doctors for a few months because I was so scared. Now I’m convinced I’m dying because I left it so late. I’m crying all the time.
Hi gumball
I’m sorry you have to be here, but welcome!
It’s easy to jump to worst case scenarios when diagnosed with breast cancer and being scared and tearful is only natural. The initial diagnosis and waiting for all the tests to be done is the hardest part. Most people will say that when you have a treatment plan and know what is happening and when you will feel better and more in control. x
