Hi all

I’m 41 and l was recently diagnosed with breast cancer (stage 3) like many hearing the news turned my world upside down! As the doctor was explaining the treatment plan, my mind went numb and l couldn’t taken anything in as l was soo distraughted luckily my sister was with me to take the information in. I will be starting chemotherapy soon and im sooo anxious and frighten as l don’t know what to expect or how my body will react. I know everyones chemo journey is different but any tips, advice or what to be aware of would really help my anxiety. 

thanks all, take care xx

Welcome to the forum . It’s impossible to take the information in when you are dealing such upsetting scary news . I’m glad your sister was there to support you . You will get loads of support and advice here every step of the way through chemo . There are chemotherapy monthly threads where people going through chemo at the same time can support each other and share advice and tips . The December thread should be up and running in next day , I will post you the link once that happens .You can do it , we will help you x
