I am new to the forum. I was diagnosed with breast cancer last week. All a bit of a shock and had my surgery this week. Now back at home. It’s stage 1 and hopefully caught early. I wasn't even aware men got breast cancer- apparently only 400 in the UK each year. The NHS-doctors, nurses, surgeon etc have all been brilliant.
Hi DHS
I am sorry you have been diagnosed with breast cancer. I can imagine that was a somewhat unexpected diagnosis for you. Welcome to our site.
There is a thread on here entitled Blokes with breast cancer. I don’t know whether there is anyone else active at the moment but worth a post.
