Hi, I'm new here. Recently diagnosed with Breast cancer IDC Hormone positive) Just had lumpectomy and sentinel node clearance yesterday. Feeling relief that treatment has now started, but worried about results in 2 weeks time. At the moment just expecting radiotherapy and tamoxifen, but need to wait and see. Finding it tough speaking to my husband - he just wants to support me, but not really wanting to talk through stuff. Friends are giving me space, but I just want to spend time with them. I'm also Autistic, so that's not helpful either. Good to meet you all
