I was diagnosed with bc in October and end of Nov I had my tumours removed, as well as my lymph nodes. Had a few hiccups with healing but looks like it's finally decided to heal up. I was initially told I would definitely need chemo but I've since found out I'll only need radiotherapy and hormone treatment (tamofixen) which is great! I should be over the moon.
I am so up and down with my emotions. I had a day a few weeks where I just cried and cried, for hours, and I didn't know what I was crying about. My husband and I separated the week before I found out I probably had bc, and then I moved out a few weeks later. So admiditedly, I've had a lot going on.
I have dealt with my bc diagnosis well overall I think, once I got over the initial shock. Now I'm finding I'm so up and down that I often have to take myself to the loo's in work to shed a tear. And concentrating in work is a struggle too! I started my tamoxifen just over 2 weeks ago and I'm having night sweats so I'm not sleeping as well as I usually would. I've had anxiety on and off, not about the cancer but about stupid other things.
I expected that with the good news of not needing chemo would have meant I would feel so much better about things but it doesn't seem to have helped.
