There is much information on the Internet about breast disease and breast cancer and their treatment. Some of the information is excellent and some of it is not. Some of it is aimed at patients and some of it is aimed at health professionals.
It is therefore important to talk with your Doctor or Nurse Care Coordinator about the relevance of any information you find to your own particular situation. The Breast Cancer Service does not endorse any particular websites, but can suggest the following reputable sites as a good place to start.
