Hi all, thank you for the comments. I think that if it hadn't have been my birthday I wouldn't have felt so low. My son came to see me over the weekend so that cheered me up. I am feeling very uncomfortable tonight though. The whole of my right side feels very tight and sore and my arm pit and under arm are sore as well. I just can't get comfortable. Anyone got any tips for help with pain?

I had my surgery on Monday and was given the chance of having reconstructive surgery done. Unfortunately they can only do the affected breast so I'm now very lop sided as my breast size was 42E. I was OK until today and now I'm feeling very low and alone. It's my birthday tomorrow but I wish it wasn't. I thought I would treat myself to a hair cut seeing as I can't wash my hair in the usual way but everywhere is fully booked until next week. It's not something you think about when you booked in for treatment. Oh well the drag me through a bush look will just have to do for now. I'm going in to see my BC nurse tomorrow to get the dressings changed so I will have a chat with her. Knew this all had to hit me at some point and it choose today. 😢

Hi Lilacmoon Unfortunately I have no savings or an overdraft so nothing to fall back on. It's the unknown that is scaring me but I will message my landlord and try and get in touch with Macmillan. X

Hi Sally, Thank you for the reply. I have to say, that work haven't been very forthcoming with what they will pay me let alone what hours I will do. I have tried talking to them but but can't seem to get anyone to sit down and discuss what is expected or how understanding they will be. It's all adding to the stress. I'm starting to think that I need to look after number 1 and not both with work. 😟

Hi everyone, Well it's coming up to 7 weeks since I had my 3 yearly breast screening and I still feel that this is all a bad dream. I have grade 2 invasive lobular carcinoma. I have just had the results of the MRI and the mass is 30mm and not the 15mm they first thought. I'm booked in for a lumpectomy on the 30th and then radiation therapy. My main worry is that I live on my own so I don't know how I will pay all my bills. I live in a 2 bed, private rented house so I don't know what help I can get. Also how long will i be off of work for? I know that I can't do anything for the first 2 weeks but I don't know how the radiation therapy and drugs will affect me as I also suffer with mild chronic fatigue. I have been told that at the moment I won't need chemo so I should count that as a blessing. Work haven't been very forthcoming with what they will pay me so im pretty stressed. The nurse has asked the Macmillan CAB to get in touch but I've not heard any thing yet. Has anyone got any advice or been in the same situation?
