I have come to the site, like many others I am sure, looking for information that might help me to understand what I should expect. I kind of have a diagnosis, its definantly cancer from the biopsys, its hormone responsive and HER2+, ive had a ct scan last sunday but still dont have the results of that. I was expecting bad news from the biopsies and am prepared to fight. I am trying to stay positive, to be really strong and just get on with what needs to be done, but as you all know, it is hard. I'm mostly worried as I have been going to gp since last October 2016 complaining that something wasn't right and they've done exams and said that all was OK and that as I was only 46/47 was too young for mammogram? Great! Just great, now I'm faced with the fear that because it's HER2+ has it spread like Japanese knot weed? Damn
