Hi annig, you are certainly not being selfish, you have been and still are going through a lot and need strength to get through it all. I feel quite guilty to be honest, as I have not had to have any follow up treatment only letrozole. I'm coping well with it at the moment, still doing my arm exercises and making every effort to walk a lot. Back for a check up tomorrow and more saline in my reconstruction. Sending you lots of love and hugs on your journey xx

Dear fairy dust, the district nurse took my drain out and honestly, it didn’t hurt at all. All the best to you today. As we all say, the wait is really hard, once you know the way forward you can start to deal with it. Sending you lots of love and hugs xx

All the very best to you on your journey. Try to take one step at a time. I had a mastectomy, reconstruction and reduction on the other breast on January 30th. I was out of hospital the next day and have been really fortunate to have made a good recovery. The waiting for results i've found to be hard but once my surgery was over I felt relieved in a funny sort of way. Sending you a of love xx

I've been on letrozole for a week now. Early days, but no major side effects yet. I'm have hot flushes but had those before anyway. I've asked if the chemist can order the same brand as the hospital gave. I had 50 ml into my reconstruction last week. It was fine. Love to all on our journey xx

Hi everyone. It’s been really interesting to read this thread. I started letrozole last week, the accord brand. At the moment I’m fine, but obviously it’s very early days. All the very best to you all. And many thanks, it’s great to share with others who know exactly what I am going through xx

Hello everyone. I had a mastectomy on January 30 th and have recovered well. I had a large amount of dcis They found 2 tiny tumours which were tested. fortunately I only need to be on letrozole. I started it last Thursday. It’s early days yet and I haven’t had any side effects. It’s very interesting and helpful to note all your comments. Thanks a lot, I’ve found this website excellent, helping me through my journey. Very best wishes to you all. Xx

Conorchloe- like you there was a possibility that I might have needed further treatment. The pathologist had to do extra tests and I was lucky that the results were negative and no further treatment was needed only letrozole. I truly hope that you will be the same, but if not remember you are strong and can defeat the little !!!!!!!! Waiting is the hardest, my appointment was postponed due to the snow. Sending you lots and lots of hugs. It’s lovely to engage with ladies who know exactly what we’re going through. Xx

I’m fortunate that I am retired. I’m 61. I usually look after my grand children, with my husband, 3days a week, but haven’t been able to recently. I have found that very hard. But in April, we are gradually, going to start looking after them again. XX

We went to porthcawl for a lovely walk and then on to The hospital this afternoon. I had very good news, no follow up treatment only letrozole for 5 years. My nurse inserted some saline into my reconstructed breast, it was fine. I go back in 2 Weeks for some more. I will have to decide what to do about a nipple for the reconstruction. All the very best to you all, fingers and toes crossed for your progress. Lots of hugs Xx

Thank you Roxanne. I haven’t driven yet. I hope to start mid March. I will need to make myself then or I feel I will loose confidence and will give up driving. All the best to you all xx

Had a bit of a weep from my reconstruction side yesterday and there is still 1 stitch left, but overnight it seems to have settled. I rang my breast nurse for a chat , as I have no other symptoms she wasn’t too concerned. They’ll have a look on Thursday. All the best to you all. X

Hi everyone. My appointment was cancelled due to the weather today. My cancer nurse rang, so we had a chat. The results of the test weren’t back anyway. I’m a bit disappointed, but others had their operations cancelled so I’m lucky really. Another week to wait. All the very best to you all. Hope everyone is nice and warm. It’s really very snowy here.
