  • Welcome to the forum Maureentesco although I'm sorry to hear you've been diagnosed with breast cancer.

    I hope this information we have about treatment for breast cancer will ease your mind about what's to come but if it would help to talk things through with someone, then do give our team of cancer nurses a call. They're available on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m and they will do all they can to answer your questions and address any other worries or concerns you may have at this time.

    We know how scary this must be Maureentesco but we are for you and sending all our strength and support your way.

    Kind regards,
