Hi,

I was diagnosed with Grade 2 invasive ductal carcinoma at the beginning of November and had a lumpectomy and sentinel node biopsy last Thursday (9/12). I think that the reality of what is happening has finally hit me and since my surgery I have been very tearful. I am quite sore and feel very anxious about my follow up appointment. 

The consultant has been very positive with me and has said by breast cancer is easily treatable so why do I feel so tearful and anxious? Is this normal?
