Hi. I was diagnosed with breast cancer 2 years ago, I had surgery a few weeks later and it’s the most nervous I’ve ever been, but you’ll be absolutely fine, I was it’s just a long day waiting around xx

Good morning clarebear and glad u have dropped by :-)

ah brill 2 yrs post op. Would love to know how things are going 2 yrs on if u feel like sharing:-

all currently on this thread are indeed post op ( if anyone is reading nd newly diagnosed or waiting for results op etc..you too are welcome to join in ). Wonder [@clairebear]‍ if you have read my 1st post nd not clicked on the tab to toggle you to latest post :-) 

anywhose me dear thanks for posting would love you to join in with the rest of us on this post :-) x

So glad the meeting went well today sundial. If it were me I would want to be sure the nodes are clear just for peace of mind. The benefit of having that info for me would be worth having a 2nd procedure. I'm interested to know what option you were/are more swayed towards. I know for you there are additional risks to surgery due to your diabetes and how much longer it can take you to heal.

Morning everyone

Good

I'm smiling, the sun has got his hat on, having a chill day.

Bad

Usual but nothing of great significance,

Hope everyone has as good a day as they can.

Good morning. I'm just about to go out the front to paint the fencing....lets see how far I get before I get bored lol

Morning sundial and all other ladies

not been on for a few days. Had wig fitting yesterday followed by an emotional breakdown at the Macmillan centre but it is a lovely wig and much better than my existing hair. Picking it up next week followed by a nice massage. 6 days into first chemo and first day I’ve felt entirely normal. I’ve come off lightly I think as still managed to pop into work and clean the house etc. Biopsy tomorrow to check for lymph node spread. Can’t say I’m optimistic as that hospital seems to love giving me bad news but will try to remain positive. Sun is out and meeting the little sis for lunch at Nando’s :-) hope everyone is ok xx

Good to get it all out dizzel. You are doing amazingly. Great to hear u are doing some nice things... u deserve it :-) mmmm a massage.... can almost feel it lol.my fave pastime a meet nd eat ... enjoy every min. Good luck for tomorrow going with a bit of a wait for the results. Fill as much of your time as u are with treats. High five to u me girl.. u r doing brill x

Hi Dizzle82 

Good news for your wig .I've just started chemo again different treatment told probably lose hair or thin out quite bit got information on local wig shop so shall have just wait see.you day you pop into work and sound quite energetic compared me but I'm 61 and tired a lot .good luck for hospital news alwasa tense time appointments .and cleaning house you doing well .does your wig look very much like your hair

Hi,

i managed to get a pretty good colour match to my normally dyed red hair but a lot longer which I’ve been striving to get. Does ur hospital not offer a service? I got mine through the Macmillan centre at the hospital. Had to pay 260 top up though as it’s human hair but worth it if it lasts. I do feel energetic today I must admit so making the most. I have no choice with an 8 year old little girl bless her  

Oh yes you sound lots younger than me I'm off work long term at present .yes been given details of wig shop and think I get help with voucher we shall see

Yeh I’ve only just turned 36. Unfortunately cancer doesn’t have age preferences! x

Hi Drizzle 82 

No it didn't discriminate young old rich poor 

Hey dizzle and tiger cub....keep going. You are both doing well. X

Hi Cornish pastie

Thanks yes we're going good considering it was chemo Monday not too bad long may it continue

Hi tigercub

so sorry u r having to go through chem a 2 nd time bless. 

Dizzel are u still trying the cold cap.. how about u tigercub u trying it x

I didn’t bother as I didn’t wanna be there anymore any longer than I had to so will just embrace the baldness lol! My oncologist said due to the strength of the fec I was on I was gonna lose hair anyway so I didn’t wanna put myself through it xx

Ah...I totally get that. It grows back- in the meanwhile u get to rock the longer hair u wanted. U keep on knocking cancer outta the ballpark girl. Onwards nd upwards ️ X

Hi ladies. Hope you're all doing ok. My admiration for those going thru chemo - you got this ladies. You rock.

All this "journey" at whatever stage of it you're at is a step closer to getting rid of that ******* cancer. Keep going and make sure you listen to your body.

I am still battling fatigue and pain - not constant now but I've just resigned myself to the fact that it's gonna stay with me.

Feeling a little down today - woke up with a starT at 3am having a drram that my cancer was back. Got a grip and went back to sleep. Sigh... it is what it is and will be what is meant to be.

Enjoy your day ladies and keep warm - not very warm today.
