Hi, I have been diagnose with breast cancer in Oct 2014. Have had 4 surgeries, the port is in place (was done on Friday 09 January) and will start chemotherapy on Friday 16 January. Feeling a little anguish and love to know what to expect from someone in the same situation as I am. Thank you. Dilshad
