Hi Gabriella,doesn’t matter what you do for a job when it is happening to you it is totally different !Everyone talking on this thread has been where you are,in shock , terrified ,disbelief…But we are all helping each other through it . I was diagnosed. 2 weeks ago and thank God I found this forum because the first week there would have been no way I could have got through it without talking to people who really understood .We have been taking it in turns to calm each other down and be hysterical .Women who are further on in the process are very calming to talk to and full of useful info .Keep in touch Jill.
We all have our crap moments and sometimes when you least expect them ! I nearly had a fight with a man who pushed I front of me in a queue in pub yesterday ,wanted to head butt him but restrained myself and then went to the toilet to cry .
I could have slapped everyone I came in to contact with in the early days of my diagnosis! Listening to anyone going on about trivial rubbish just made me want to scream and go on a rampage, I don’t think I went in a supermarket for weeks, I seriously would have done something I would have regretted!!! Fast forward a few months and all is well again, I had zero Interest in anything but life does begin to return to normal ?Xxx
Do you think we would get off on diminished responsibility if we did punch someone?I felt like squashing my sandwich into someones face at lunchtime.
Go girl, the dogs of Britain have benefitted from your misfortune !
Yep I know the feeling. Today at work I wanted to scream at someone and tell them to get a life and there are more important things in life. Think I am in angry mode today. It seems many of us are. Hope you guys sleep well ( or as well as you can) big hugs xxx
Enjoy your cat I am still waiting too. Was told they would be in contact following a second lot of biopsies but still nothing. I really hate this waiting around
Cat coming home with me tomorrow, big black cuddly boy! V nervous as i have never had any pets before oh well, life’s full of surprises these days x
MissyDec16 hope it went ok today. I was thinking of you. Big hugs xxx
Thanks for the pre op pointers ladies still have not got my date I hate this waiting xxx
Hang on in there Jill. Can i add that dizeapam is a girls best friend as well as beer/wine. Do ask for a pre op dose tomorrow it really helped me before the op. I went in ti the anasethetic room calm and serene and I had a severe phobia of surgery. Not anymore though thanks to my good friend dizeapam. Sending you a big hug Jill xxxx You can do this xxxx

Sending big hugs to Jill for tomorrow. It won’t be nearly as bad as you imagine and at least you’ll get a few hours sleep, even if you are unconscious, lol. Don’t expect you’ll get much tonight. Yep, double G & T went down very nicely for me the night before my first op. 2nd time round, few glasses of wine. Now I’m on the wagon due to my dodgy tum and my Anastrazole induced hot flushes! Oh the joy of it all. Xx
Bigs hugs MissyDec16 xxx at least you now know what you are dealing with. Stay strong … Onwards and upwards… Xxx
Good luck tomorrow Jill Big hugs xxxx
