I am sorry to hear about your diagnoses and know how difficult it can be to cope with two primary cancers at the same time. Mine were both in my breasts and I had a double mastectomy, followed by Tamoxifen, for 1 year before I changed to Letrozole for 6½ years. That was all 16 years ago now and I still lead a busy and fulfilling life.
Treatment was challenging at times, but perfectly "doable". Some cancers are more aggressive than others and the stage that it is at when diagnosed, can have some bearing on how effective treatment is. Do you know what type or stages of cancer you have? Treatments have advanced considerably in recent years. I lost my mum to secondary breast cancer and feared the same fate, when I was first diagnosed. There was just no comparison to the diagnosis, treatment and after care which we both received.
