Hi
my name is elaine and i am on my 9th radiotherapyfor dcis. This was picked up from a routine mamogram back in August.. I have been a nurse for 37yrs and was due to retire in December. My whole world has been turned upside down and although i know the prognosis for this type of breast cancer has the best prognosis. Every little twinge or pain i fear its there somewhere else. I know my fears are irrational but am i going to spend the rest of my days worrying that anything wrong is cancer. Noone talks about it telling me i will be fine but im scared and all the stories you read doesnt help as it seems everyone wants to post about the negative experiences . I dont want my life to be constantly worrying its come back as for the next ten years i have to have yearly mamograms
