That's a question that gets asked a great deal, the simple answer is: I really don't know the answer!
I've never been one to analyse my feelings, I tend to just get on with things. For the most part I try not to think about cancer and cancer treatment mainly because it makes me angry. The entire process has been an experience I could have done without!

It’s been 9 months since I got my breast cancer clear result. Have had so many mixed emotions from anxiety stress anger but mainly happy that I got through it and get to appreciate life a whole lot more.

I think I had too much going on, my husband died 7 months before I was diagnosed with breast cancer.
When I was diagnosed, I was in the process of selling the bungalow, I was packing and cleaning the place whilst having radiotherapy, I moved from the East Midland to the South East of England 9 months after being diagnosed,
I then had to make flat habitual, Christmas 17, I had a repeat of Optic Nerve shingles, it's been a long haul, but it has left me véry tired, as I have no help or backup.
I now taking a tonic to try and get some life back in my body,
I have also been referred to the falls clinic, as due to been so ill has left me weak, and I have been slipping over.
I hope 2018 will be a better year, I go out on coach trips, I like the ones which combine a river cruise, less walking, no falling over.

That’s interesting Waterford 48 about the marina coil. I’m on tamoxifen as well due to my hormones but when I asked my specialist about removing it they said it was ok. It’s due to come out next year anyway tg. I have an appointment with them again Friday so I will ask again. Take care everyone
