Just wondered anyone who had breast cancer did they get it again in their other breast? I had bc (ER positive) removed in October 2024. I’m currently awaiting biopsy results from my other breast anI’m worried sick it might be a new different cancer. I’ve already had a tonne of chemotherapy and radiotherapy last year
Feel like this bloody brca 2 gene is to blame. My oncologist warned me radiotherapy could cause cancer in the other breast, absolutely petrified of walking the walk again.
