  • Hiya Dartmouth1.  I am just saying hello and welcome.  There are lovely ladies on this forum who have survived breast cancer and I am confident that you will hear from at least one of them in the near future.  Best wishes.  Annie

  • Hi.. sorry to hear of your diagnosis. Just to say, there are plenty of people here to talk to. I was dreading starting my chemo as everything I read sounded horrible! As it turns out, my side effects we're not too bad at all and no where near as bad as I thought.

    I hope all goes well with your chemo. Feel free to chat anytime!
