Hello & Help - inflammatory breast c

Hello,

I hope this is the right place to post & I’m doing it correctly. I’m 38 & have ibc. I feel incredibly alone and lost & am struggling with the Ct emotionally.

I have been a vegi my entire life, I don’t smoke, I’ve tried to look after myself physically and I just don’t understand how this has happened.

I’ve been looking at threads on here regularly but this is my first post.

Just wondering if anyone else is out there?

Hi Sbee! So many are out there! I didn’t have IBC but there are others here who have. And we all wonder why we are the ones cancer picked but the fact is that it’s just dumb luck. None of us did anything wrong, cancer just grows sometimes, and we do the best we can when it does. If you have questions or need anything we’re here but once you start treatment it does get better.

Hi there. Totally understand what you are feeling at the moment and it will take a while to come to terms with the fact about this, but it is going to get better once your treatment starts. There is no particular reason why this happened as you will discover there are many others on this forum who were healthy and taking good care of themselves. It’s just hard luck. Do not ever blame yourself or try and doubt on what you did and/ or didn’t do. This forum is a lovely group of people who will support you through and through, trust me. It gets better. Sending you healthy and healing vibes. You got this!
