Hello, I’m a new member and aren’t I pleased I found this site. I had a mastectomy on the 18th Dec. They only found the cancer because I was sent by the rheumatologist for a CT scan on my lungs! My lungs are still dodgy (and I have never smoked) but hopefully once I’m over this they will sort them out. I’ve found reading posts from other members that I’m not the only person who feels like they’re wearing sandpaper under the arm or they can’t wear a bra because it keeps riding up on the affected side. I went out for a meal a couple of days ago and fastened a small band from the base of my bra onto the top of my trousers. It worked! I wish everyone well. Lancslass43

You may find the BCC ‘newly diagnosed’ and ‘treatments’ web pages useful over the coming months, here you will find lots of information and further support ideas;
