Had my hospital appointment on Tuesday to get biopsy results and treatment plan. I have grade 1 bc in right breast and to have lumpectomy first week in February then, all being well, radiotherapy 6-8 weeks after that. Will then be on oestrogen for at least 5 years. After appointment on Tuesday I was so relieved as the diagnosis is so much better than I'd imagined. I felt better knowing what I'm dealing with and can focus on treatment. Yesterday I felt so positive and felt I could definitely cope with this. Today I don't feel so positive and now starting to fear what comes next. Wonder if others have felt like this?
Hi HeatherLassie
I'm Daisy53 one of the Community Champions on this forum. I'm sorry to hear that you have been diagnosed with breast cancer. What you are feeling is perfectly natural, a cancer diagnosis is life changing. We've all struggled from time to time and to fear what comes next. It can feel like a lonely road sometimes but when you come on here you're not alone as we all understand where you're coming from.
Wishing you the best of luck with your surgery.
Best wishes
