Hi everyone just wanted to say hello as I’m not sure what to write, my head is not quite with it at the moment and I just feel so overwhelmed but I’m sure this is normal to feel this way.
Anyway hello
Hi Kel41 and welcome to the forum.
It's a bit of a shock when you first find out you have breast cancer and it does take a little while to digest it and get used to it. The hardest part by far is all the waiting for test results and to find out what and when your treatment will be. Most of us seem to feel a lot better once we know what we are dealing with and what the treatment plan is.
What stage are you at at the moment, do you have your treatment plan?
The IBC forum seems to be much quieter than the general Breast Cancer forum so you might also want to pop on there and say Hello. That forum is really busy with lots of lovely ladies on it who will make you feel very welcome.
CLICK HERE for general Breast Cancer Forum. The chat section might be the best place to start unless you have already started treatment in which case try the Diagnosis and treatment section.
Whatever cancer throws your way, we’re right there with you.
We’re here to provide physical, financial and emotional support.
