Joined: Mar 2015 Posts: 55 | Welcome Angie, you've come to the right place. When I was diagnosed just over a year ago I was nearly frantic to learn more. The folks here have been through it and can give you all the support and guidance you need. A year later I find myself clear after 3 post-treatment checkups, and there are days that I don't even *think* about my cancer experience ;o)....
Christine will be along in a little bit here to start the ball rolling with information from people a lot more knowledgeable than me. But know that you have my support and that of all the other members here. It's a nice place.
