Hello all, am feeling a bit low this evening. It’s the day after my diagnosis and even though I was feeling positive yesterday, today I feel absolutely shattered and ache all over, I imagine it’s because of all the pent up anxiety ive been keeping in for the last few weeks. I went to see my GP this morning to get a sick note for work, and she was shocked by my diagnosis, so much so that her mouth dropped open in shock when I told her. I’m feeling quite anxious about other aches and pains I’m having at the moment, however she said that this is to be expected and that I need to put my trust in the team looking after me. I’ve had a phone call booking in my scan as well for next Thursday, I know it will be hard, but I think I’m going to try not to think about it and enjoy my weekend away with the husband. I hope you all have nice things planned xx
Ladies it will get easier,first few days/ weeks are really, really hard.Aches and pains are really normal as you become hyper aware of your body and are very anxious , I ached all over and my good boob hurt as well as my biopsied boob,but nothing else more sinister was going on .
Jill’s right…I too felt every ache and pain was sinister. My other boon hurt too and the bc nurse said it’s coming out in sympathy! I can’t believe I’ve got through the other end and am planning to go back to work. It seems like an eternity but you will get there. Hey by spring you may both have finished treatment then you can recover in the sun. Sending love Lorna x x
Let’s hope they do something useful like do the ironing for you!!!
Thanks for all the support ladies, much needed by me…what would we do without each other?
I got aches and pains and ‘signs’ all over the place, all the time right up to my op at least!
Yes Fiona, not only ‘busy’ but ‘a all a bit mess in there’, delightful!
Going to bed now, feeling shattered now!

Think I know why I have aches and pains at mo, but yes at the beginning you think everything is linked. You learn to deal with it ( it’s difficult I am not going to lie)
This is one big challenge xx
Very quiet on here today ! I have house to myself this weekend as husband and son gone to Manchester Uni open day and staying to O/N watch Hawkwind.Going out with friend for nice meal,find it hard to stay awake past 9.30 so won’t be a late night.
Enjoy your meal Jill

Wondering if I can get this thread up to 3,000 replies before I go back to work week on Monday,3,000 comments since I was diagnosed end of May!!!
I’m in my hotel in Windsor about to get ready to go out for a few drinks and a Thai meal, after the shock of the last few days I’m finally starting to feel hungry again. Am contemplating staying a third night here as its so nice to be away for a few days. Enjoy all your yummy sounding dinners ladies. Sissy xx
If you can stay another night do,if you are feeling more positive and calm make the most of it Sarah,sounds like we are all eating well tonight !!
Jill, we will all work with you to reach the 3,000 goal by Monday.
I’m watching Strictly with a beer and waiting for my husband to come home from work and cook my dinner. Happy Saturdays to all. x

I left my husband ( partner, never married) after 36 years last year. Sods law I would then have to get bc when I had just started enjoying myself! X
It’s scary how life can change in an instant. Keep feeling the urgency to live life to the full and do something amazing but don’t know where to start! And then there’s work lol x
