@Courtney_J Aw I love this idea. Hi everyone, I was diagnosed with breast cancer in late 2017 and finished up my chemo in July 2018. For now I'm still in remission, but I've been thinking since cancer runs in my family, of maybe getting a preventative mastectomy. I wasn't open to it at the time. If anyone ever wants to talk, please don't hesitate to reach out to me on here! Cancer sucks but we can overcome it!

Hi, I'm on my second go-round with breast cancer and going through chemo - again! Staying positive though! Hope you're all doing well and are staying safe as those covid numbers are going back up!

Symptoms and complications of breast cancer
What was your age and what initial symptoms did you experience at onset?
positive
@Courtney_J I am getting very nervous and scared because the surgery is July 13, 2021. My parents both died this year so I dont have them to talk to. My mom died on Feb 16, 2021 with a sickness she was suffering for 18 months so i was dealing with that for the last months and then my dad had a major stroke 3 weeks after my mom passed away and he could no longer go back to his assistance living so we had to find a nursing home. We found one he was only in there 3 weeks and then he passed away on May 6, 2021. Right after all that I was diagnosed with cancer so I have been on a train that is non-stop. I feel like I am so tried out and I dont have much energy left. My sisters are not helpful they keep telling me just pray. They both got to take 2 weeks vacation after my mom and dad passed away. I have not even had time to take a breather I am just on the train of bad luck. That is how I am feeling.
