Hello I was diagnosed with breast cancer in Jan had lumpectomy and lymph node removal surgery went well somedays I feel really low is this normal I'm waiting for two weeks off radiotherapy
It’s perfectly normal to feel low, being diagnosed with breast cancer is a huge shock. You will have good days and bad days but things do get easier with time.
You’ve now got time to process this huge life event/ shock. I think it is a normal adjustment reaction to have good and bad days as you try to process all that has happened. The Macmillan help line and the breast cancer now one are really helpful. If you are struggling your BCN can refer you for counselling if you feel that might help. sunshine and fresh air can do a lot for our happy hormones. Thinking of you.
