Hi - I was diagnosed with invasive ductual cancer (apparently the most common type - always knew I was common!) 2 weeks ago. Am having a total mastectomy on 23 Oct with immediate reconstruction, so thats good! Not looking forward to 6 sessions of chemo afterwards as have been told my hair will fall out. Still, better health than beauty ay? Not sure how I feel coz I feel so well and not ill! Am thinking positive though as I am more than sure I will beat this b*****d thing xx


You've come to the right place Melanie. So sorry about your diagnosis. However, it looks as if you're getting near-instant treatment. I know the ladies of the site (ie 95% of members) will be able to offer more insight and support than I might. Please be assured that you'll get loads of support here!
