Hello
I am sorry to hear your diagnosis.
I was diagnosed in February, had mastectomy and two nodes removed then 12Th July had mastectomy on other side.
I have been lucky in that not needed any chemo.
I see the surgeon again on Thursday.
My friend had the same surgery and treatment as you in November last year and is doing really well.
Please let me know how you are doing?Try to remain positive and strong xx
Hi
I had the same surgery and treatment last year and am doing pretty well so keep with the programme and hopefully it will be the same for you. My operations started on 4/8 (had 3 as needed all lymph nodes removing) and the radiotherapy finished early December. Had my first annual check in June which was clear which helps with confidence that it was all worth it.
Was feeling pretty good by February when I developed lymphoedema in the left quarter of my body which is a challenge to deal with but up until them was progressing really well. Stick with the programme, hopefully the end is in sight.
Hope the radiotherapy goes well next week
