Hi everyone,
I keep having dreams about my breast cancer returning. I was diagnosed in 2023 and had a lumpectomy. I have been for 2 annual mammograms so far and both were clear so I don’t know why I’m so convinced that this year will be different. I will be going for my 3rd mammogram in October.
I’m struggling to cope, it's occupying my brain practically all the time. I’ve also suffered with depression and anxiety for many years now and take several medications for it so that’s probably not helping.
Also I was put on Letrozole after my surgery. The first symptom I got was pain in my legs which I can cope with most of the time. However, for a long time now I’ve been struggling with brain fog and not coping with it at all. If I’m having a conversation with someone I try to think ahead to what word I need and a lot of the time I can’t ‘find’ it and then start panicking because the person I’m talking to is looking at me waiting for my reply. I’ve read a few posts on here about Letrozole and brain fog but, because I catastrophise about everything, I can’t accept that it’s the Letrozole that’s the cause.
