hi im 36 mother of 3 n diagnosed dec 23. ive had 2 ops n 5 of 6 chemo n finding it very hard at mo. feel so peed off n cant get rid of that feeling. would love to chat. x
Thank you hope you are well, I am told it was very aggressive went from zero to grade three within a few months but hey like you said kicked its a.. once can do it again, so good to hear from the old crowd it is true when we all said we are like family and hopefully now this thread is starting up again it may help others once they read some of it.
As the boyfriend of someone who has been through treatment once, I know that I cannot speak from experience about having to go through the treatment a second time. So far it has been great news for her first course of treatments. She is now five years clear and I hope and pray that it continues. I can offer you all the very best for the new year. Treatments have improved over the past four years, thanks to CRUK and others, so you will get the very best available. I know that the contributors to Cancer Chat will be of amazing support. If you feel that anyone close to you, (assuming) boyfriend, husband or any other male party fancies a natter I am only a post away.
I am so sorry you have to go through this again - I know I appreciated all the kindness you showed me (I was having treatment the same time as you). I will be thinking of you and wishing you all the very best x
Hope this finds you well, It is so comforting that you all still come on here from time to time and am able to talk to people that k.ow of me from old, it would of been four years clear in February really thought that I would of made the five years I just cannot believe it can't get my head around why again you think you have done everything right over that time although I am told its a completely different type this time and in the other breast.
I was due to go to Gambia Monday just gone but they told me I had to cancel my holiday as they could not take the risk of me going so that really upset me to I know I can have a holiday after and boy will I lol where I do not know, I know health comes first but you know what it is like when you are back on that roller coaster. I am told I maybe having chemo once a week for either 12 or 18 weeks depending what results come back from the surgery so will keep you updated on that and not looking forward to it although I am told it will not be fec but part of the Taxatier family(think I spelt it right) but hey as long as it get rids of it who cares, I will have to grow my hair all over again that's the part I hated most last time loosing my hair, we all use to say it and it hasn't changed now.
Well I can go on and on but what's the point it is what it is and I have to deal with it and praying it's not as bad this time around
Good to hear from you glad your doing well yes it was a really big shock but as you can see from what I have written earlier I know it's going to be hard but with all you guys around it will make my journey easier please keep in touch and stay safe
I see from the time of your messaging that sleep is not your friend ! Hardly suprising! But as I said I always seem to be awake around now so happy to have chat !
I having been thinking about you so much ever since I saw the post about your cr**news.It is what we all dread, but we will all do everything we can to help you do this again xx
It is horrible that you had to cancel your holiday, I know as you say health is more important but We so look forward to our hols! During your treatment you can plan a big one for when its over.Since I finished treatment in march 2011(diagnosed july 2010) we have had a number of really fab hols! It changes whats important to you you! We are going away as a family just the 4 of us for christmas ( we have 2 girls aged 21and 18 ) something we never had christmas in sun I think our experiences make you do things you want rathe than just think them ! So u get planning my girl! I will be taking my ipad so will keep up to date with how you doing !
How is everyone around you doing ? Do u have good support ? I remember how rubbish it feels watching the people you care about being upset ! I personally found that one of the hardest bits! So thats where your cyber family here come in ! You dnot have to be careful what u say to us for fear of upseting us (although we care deeply ) you can rant away on here say what you like to us moan, cry, say anything even stuff friends and family might feek inappropriate! We all know what those times are like !
Absolutely gutted to read your post n can't tell you how sorry I am. Awful news. I promise I will be here for you too. Mine was very aggressive n op was in December. Still here n waiting for my 4 year clear. You will get through this. It must be terrifying to go through it all again. Unfortunately my body didn't recover from chemo n has left me using wheelchair on odd occasions that I do go out. This is why I haven't posted. I'm feeling too poorly to write more today I'm afraid. We will lift you up n carry you through this nightmare.
Hello everyone. Hope you don't mind me joining. My Mum has just been diagnosed with breast cancer if you have a look at my other posts you will see what the doctors have said. They have put her on hormone tablets until her op as first she needs an mri because the mammogram and ultrasound are showing the tumour as different sizes. The mri is on the 27th and then the results and to talk about her treatment plan is on the 7th january. Seems so long to wait her consultant said he can get rid of this but I am still so scared the cancer is grade 3 and either 15mm or 30mm, depending on which measurement is right. I'm just scared the hormone tablets won't work and we will go back and the tumour will have grown. I think all of you are so brave on this thread. My Mum is being very brave right now too. Carrying on as normal. Sorry for the lack of paragraphs I'm on my phone xx
Thanks for getting back and yes you guessed right sleep is not good at the moment all the different thoughts and feelings rolling around in the head talk about a rollercoaster but hey I will get through it again got all these holidays to plan funny enough we organized to go to Jamaica next year with some friends of ours they have just been round to see me next year so have said may have to put it back a month or two but will definitely be going can't wait.
Where are you and the family of to and what date do you go?
I popped out yesterday to the shops as was getting cabin fever after an hour and a half had to come home was absolutely shattered but also got to be careful not to over do things roll on the New Year so I can get on with treatment so it finishes quicker. I was watching Text Santa the other night well the water works started and didn't stop wrong program to watch really but at least it gave me an excuse to cry lol hat crying for no reason I feel people look at you as if to say what are you crying for although their not isn't it funny the thoughts and feelings you get.
As you may know Lonie has written to me as well so will be speaking with her next it feels so good to have you all here again for me I think we all went through so much together its like a bond and trust that grow like nothing else although a lot of us have never met.
