    Dee...I'm so sorry that you have to go through this.  You are so right....your whole world does stand still for a bit as you pour over the information you are given and plan your treatments.  We all needed help, which is why we are here and will be here for you, too.

    Do you know what type of breast cancer you have?  Is is ductile, lobular, or DCIS?  You didn't mention any surgery except for the insertion of the port.  Are they doing chemo before the surgery?  Tell us a little more about your situation.  We will help you get through it.  It is very scary at first but it is doable even if it feels like you're in the midst of a tornado right now.

    Hi dear, and welcome to this site. You are now a sister. It really is a whirlwind for some, for me it took my bunch 3 months to diagnose me and then they thought I had Lymphoma. I almost went nuts, with all the waiting.



    I guess we are never happy with this diagnosis or how it is handled.



    Post often, you are a member now.



    Gentle hugs, Shirlann

    Hi, I was rushed into surgery a week after my diagnosis.  I do not recommend rushing into anything with this disease.

    Please take some deep breaths and begin to educate yourself about your bc.  A copy of your path report will help you understand more about your bc.

    I welcome you to these boards and belive you will be glad you found us as we can be available to ans. any questions you may have, we just need to know more about your situation.

    Look forward to hearing from you.
