Hi all .I've just finished 21 bcg treatments with no reoccurrence. The treatment has ended now .but I'm still finding it very hard mentally .t thought I'd be feeling great but still very anxious and very up and fown .is any one else feeling the same
One thing I've learned after my breast masectomy in 2017, it never leaves you, it sits on our shoulder and with every bad ache and pain, rings little alarm bells ... just reminding us it's there ...
So many feel guilty thinking we should be on cloud 9 after a while, where in truth the memories are always there when we don't expect them ... so be kind to yourself and know it's o.k not to feel o.k sometimes ... and though people think they can understand, till you've been through the cancer journey it's not the same, in my opinion...
So hold on, try and tell yourself it's normal to feel like that ... Chrissie x

Hi coz welcome to the forum the club nobody wants to join. Alot of people on here call it the new NORMAL . after cancer is diagnosed things change for us .
Hope you can get to relax and be more positive soon . Chrissie,is a lot better at words than me .
