Looking for anyone who has any info and experience of tumours in/on adrenal glands. There isn’t a specific chat for this and Google is not my friend!
A bit about me, 2011 I had grade 3, her2+ breast cancer. Mastectomy, chemo and herceptin treatment followed. Fast forward to October this year, exactly 10 years to the month since first diagnosis. An ultrasound for an unrelated matter picked up something suspicious. GP put me for CT scan November which shows mass on Adrenal Gland, however I don’t know if it’s on or in at this stage as didn’t ask. Plus a small nodule in lung. GP has passed everything to my original breast care team who have instructed further investigations. Awaiting letter etc.
I have read secondaries from bc to adrenals is rare however can happen. Or could it be totally unrelated? Head coming up with all types of scenarios.
Any info / advice appreciated.
Thanks
Ann
Hi Ann and a very warm welcome to the online community
I'm afraid I can't help with your questions but I noticed that your post hadn't had any replies yet.
As you know the online community is divided up into different support groups so I hope you don't mind me suggesting that you also post this in the breast cancer and secondary breast cancer groups which I can see that you've joined. I'm hoping you'll find others in these groups who have the experience you're looking for.
If you'd like to do that clicking on the links I've created will take you straight there.
