    I have a lot of anger I haven't dealt with regarding my double mastectomy. I have a hard time talking about it. But I have to do something, my life feels like its on hold. HELP!

      palomaa1, Hi I'm Cath1953 It is normal to feel anger. I know I did when i was diagnosed in Feb. of this year. Also when my sister was diagnosed when sh was 23 or so. After the short spit of anger I've been very up beat. what really helped was reconstruction surgery.I had that done the same day. I should say th strtchers put in. The ijection of salne the very next day.Did you look into that? Also ask your oncologist if there is a support group out of the hospitol you had the masectomy.The Cancer center where I went also has a group that meets every other month. I hope I am a help. Any qeustions let me know Cath1953
