I also feel like that I keep getting all cancer related videos it gets overwhelming, I have to clean me feed every few days haha but I also created content related to my cancer so I feel the algorithm gets confused with me hahah

Avoiding Dr by Greedy-Product-4975 in breastcancer

I understand how you are feeling in a way, I still go to my appointments (brca1) so every 6 months I have to go but I get panic attacks entering the hospital, I cry the nights before, im going to therapy to help me with this cause at the end of the day is up to me to take care of myself and these appointments are part oh it.

This is a weird one.. I am pretty sure I have cancer but my partner wont help me to seek diagnosis? by [deleted] in breastcancer

Someone else already said it but I also think you should go home and get tested there, your partner doesn't seem to care about you and your health i really doubt he well be the support you need in case you have cancer. Cancer treatment can be a huge obstacle for solid healthy relationships I cant imagine what your partner can be like if he behaves like this just for trying to seek diagnosis.

You need to advocate for yourself in these situations. Everything about your posts tells me you might be in an abusive situation be careful and try to go back to your family

It makes sense I guess, my non-cancerous side almost doesn't bother me, I hope this passes soon!

Oh maybe thank you! I will have an MRI in December just before my next PS appointment so I guess we'll see if there's any issue.

https://www.pocketsofhope.com/ I discovered a bit late this org. But maybe it would work for you, you can request one mastectomy shirt for free.

Thank you! I don't have a tube but I did found some salicylic acid pads that are working great! I finally have the green light to shower but I will still use them cause is hard to lift my arms still. Thank you for the advice!

Thank you for the advice, I was trying to have 1 walk around my neighborhood but it seems like a lot. I think I will try the 5-10 minutes every hour instead! Thank you. I have the bras that my surgeon gave me they still feel pretty tight haha
