Hi all
i had stage 3 triple negative breast cancer last year and had it successfully treated however since then have got more disabled ? Due to surgery/chemo. I’ve just been diagnosed with the same aggressive cancer again! They have said my only option is surgery. I have concerns over this regarding how they will operate as I can’t lie flat anymore. I’ve asked what if I don’t want surgery because I don’t want to get more disabled and have even more pain that no medication can seem to control. I have 2 young children (11&7) and a supportive husband but can’t bear them having to watch my ms get even worse and be unable to do even more. Is it selfish of me to just want to get on with life and ignore the cancer?
what would you do? I just can’t bear the thought of getting more disabled and unable to be independent on self care and have my kids witness this. Also I can’t take anymore pain. I can’t sleep or sit for periods because of it and I’ve tried every painkiller and neuropathic ones too. Sorry for this post to be so miserable
