Hi lovely people
looking to chat pretty worried got told on 14 January by my GP I had HER2 positive 3+ cancer and to say it has been a bumpy road with test after test but no information until the 9 th of March when I sore a surgeon and got told lumpectomy and only radiotherapy as caught it early had the operation 24 of March and got biopsy results 2 weeks ago due to doctors strikes that cancer was bigger so now need 5 months chemo and as aggressive need targeted drugs and radiotherapy well this came as a shock and due to doctors strikes again I do not see a oncologist till the 26 of May for my treatment plan, and sorry to say I do not speak much Spanish. Any advice for my up and coming treatment would be a great help thank you so much.
Hello sorry for your diagnosis I had the same diagnosis have undergone brutal chemo therapy and surgery am now starting chemotherapy target treatment and waiting on radiotherapy dates i cant imagine how much more scary it is when not speaking the language iv had good results so far so the treatment does work although its such a lot to take in and a long road I hope your treatment goes well big hugs x
