Hi Sandy!

Wow that's a whirlwind 6 weeks you've had! Sorry you've had to go through all that! 

I totally understand not being able to get your head around it and feeling like it's happening to someone else. I felt and still feel like that a bit. Though I have felt that bit of mental distance has helped me reframe it all as a bad virus that's being treated. It might sound silly but it's made it seem more treat able and easier deal with.

Also get the going stir crazy at home. Never thought I would miss working so much! Feel like I've watched the entire contents f Netflix already! I know it's hard waiting for results but try to keep yourself distracted doing  things you enjoy until Monday. I agree these forums are a great outlet though, seeing that others have had similar experience's and kept going really helps!

Hope you are over the flu and that your wound heals quickly! 

Good evening 

I was diagnosed with breast cancer begining of October 2018 and by 31st October I had a masectomy with immediate reconstruction It is all so sureal. I am pleased with the restructure but I have been constantly in pain. I do my exercise and am getting there slowly. I got my head around chemo and was due to start chemo this week but due to an infection this has been postponed. I would like to ask fellow sufferers if their mastectomy has caused them to be weak and unable to walk far. I am also stir crazy and because I get so tired and out of breath I can't walk out. Am I expecting too much too soon. All I want is normality back, to work go shopping all the things I use to moan about but now miss so so much. I can't drive yet either.. I hope your results are in your favour.
