Hello Everyone. I’ve recently been diagnosed with ER + HER2+ lobular breast cancer with spread to axillary lymph nodes and also subcarnal lymph node.   So stage 4…I was originally referred to the breast clinic early August, so it’s been a stressful few months. But I now have a treatment plan for chemo every week for three to four months. Feeling a little bit lost, but trying to stay positive

  • Hi  and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.

    I’m Anne, one of the Community Champions here on the Online Community, and I know how stressful having a breast cancer diagnosis can be. 

    The online community is divided into different support groups and I can see that you've already joined and posted in the breast cancer group, which is a great place to connect directly with others who have the same type of cancer as you. 

    When you feel up to it, it would be great if you could put something about your diagnosis and proposed treatment into your profile as it really helps others when replying to you and also when looking for someone on a similar pathway. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.
