  • Hi, I’m sorry you’re going through this too. I have had a lumpectomy nearly a week ago. I too have emotions that are all over the place. I had to stop taking oestrogen, so I’m struggling with a bit of brain fog,

    I have an appointment next Wednesday with the surgeon to find out what was found, and what further treatment I should need.

    We have to stay positive, Wishing you well and hope you have support.

    Look after yourself, Jj73

  • Hi there I had lumpectomy and nipple removal 3rd December. My boob looks like a purse with zip across it. I picked up my hormone med letrozole yesterday and have my initial radiotherapy appointment 25 Feb. My head is all over the place and I’ve spoken to my MacMillan support worker today and she is referring me for counselling so that I can talk through my journey as I haven’t processed it. Take each day as it comes. 

  • I’m so sorry this happened to you.
    I have found that in my case I have felt all along that it’s not happening to me, I don’t know whether it’s the way my brain is coping with my situation. 
    I wish you all the best and hope you can benefit from your counselling. Accept any help offered from friends and family. Take care of yourself. Sending healing hugs your way.
