Hi, I'm Hayley. I'm 48 years old& found a lump in booby few months ago...since then I have had operation to remove it,but unfortunately they found cancer in lymph node biopsy they took, so instead of the radiotherapy they thought I may need, it's chemo instead! I'm staying very positive, but it's my mum, sister&28yr old son that I worry about!!

  • A very warm welcome to the Cancer Chat forum Hayley although I'm sorry to hear about your diagnosis.

    I hope it helps to know that a lot of members within our community have breast cancer as well, so you are not alone, and I'm sure it won't be long until some of them stop by to offer some support and advice.

    You can find out more about chemotherapy for breast cancer on our website, but if you have any further questions or concerns you'd like to discuss with one of our cancer nurses, they're available on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m. They're very insightful and will do all that they can to help.

    We're thinking of you Hayley and wishing you all the best on this journey.

    Kind regards,

    Steph, Cancer Chat Moderator
