Hello everyone,

I was diagnosed with invasive ductal carcinoma Stage 1, Grade 3 in 2024. I have completed lumpectomy, chemotherapy and radiation. Now taking hormone blocking meds for 5 more years. Im new here and wanted to connect with others in similar circumstance. Ive been struggling with side effects of hormone therapy and general fear of cancer returning😕

• You are certainly not alone! Managing the side effects from maintenance treatments such as hormone-blocking therapies, as well as the fear of recurrence is an often seen topic amongst many breast cancer survivors in our community. We hope others can chime in to share their experiences and coping strategies with you. We also invite you to join our Zoom survivorship meetups Bonded by Breast Cancer for added support. ❤️
