At the age of 39, I received a diagnosis of HER2-positive breast cancer. I underwent a series of treatments, including surgery and radiation therapy, which were completed by 2022. Following these treatments, my oncologist declared me cancer-free and I’m back to work.
Initially, I noticed some discharge from my nipple, which prompted me to undergo a routine health screening. The doctor reassured me that everything seemed fine at that time. However, after a month passed, my breast started to swell up, and I swiftly scheduled an appointment to consult with specialists at the hospital.
Receiving the news of my diagnosis came as a shock to me. Enduring the journey of chemotherapy treatments and surgery was incredibly challenging. There were moments when I broke down emotionally, but I'm grateful to have had the unwavering support and encouragement of my family and friends throughout this difficult time.
Having a positive mindset is important . The journey is tough, so seek support when needed. Joining a support group can also be beneficial.
