So Worried Please Someone talk to me

HI Emma,

I can relate to your fears. I am also worried about my situation but I dont have anyone to talk to. I will get results of an X-Ray on Thursday too. This forum is helping me feel a bit more calm.

It must be very hard after giving birth so recently and with a family that depends on you. 

We are both waiting for thusday it is not that far away but it feels like a lifetime at the same time. I am doing some breathing exercises which are helping, and spending time on forums instead of dr google. Dr google is an awful place to spend time.

Wishing you the very best xx

    Hi Emma,

    A very warm welcome to our forum and congratulations on the safe arrival of your new baby.

    You undergo a lot of changes in your breasts when you have a baby, so here's hoping that your symptoms are to do with this and not anything more sinister.

    Waiting for results is always a difficult time  and we tend to think of all sorts of scenarios. Try to take things one day at a time and don't look too far into a future, that hopefully, might never happen. There are a number of different types of breast cancer and they all need different treatments. Likewise, there are different types of chemo, to treat some of them.

    I have had 2 bouts of breast cancer in the past 13 years and I never had chemo. I took Tamoxifen for 1 year, then after the second bout, I changed over to Letrozole. I have had a lumpectomy and a double mastectomy and I still continue to lead a busy and fulfilling life.

    Do please keep in touch and let us know how you are getting on. We are always here for you.

    Will be thinking of you on Thursday and keeping my fingers crossed!

    Kind regards,

    Jolamine xx
