Has anyone on here had breast cancer and endometrial cancer at the same time?

Hello everyone, I get the biopsy results from my hysteroscopy on Thursday, and I'm not expecting good news (please read my profile) I also had a biopsy today for suspected  breast cancer. Yes, I know I haven't had a confirmed diagnosis for either yet, but its highly likely. Has anyone here had to deal with these two cancers at the same time? It would mean a lot to me if I didn't feel so alone in this. I can't actually believe this is happening to me and my family. Can they treat breast cancer and womb cancer simultaneously, and successfully? Julia x

BTW I have also posted this in the Endometrial cancer forum

  • Hi Fridgelicker

    Welcome to the forum and sorry to hear that you may have endometrial and breast cancer.  While I haven't experienced two cancers at the same time I thought I'd reply to you as you haven't had any replies yet.  Hopefully someone will be along soon to answer your question.

    Wishing you the best of luck with your results.

    Best wishes

  • Good Morning Fridgelicker

    I am so sorry that you find yourself in this situation.

    I haven't had endometrial cancer and breast cancer simultaneously but did have endometrial cancer 5 years ago, which was successfully treated with a hysterectomy without further treatment. I have since had a triple positive grade 3 stage 2 invasive carcinoma diagnosed in August last year. I know how scary it all is and my heart goes out to you at this time.

    I am hoping that your news is better than you are expecting and once you have your results, your team will be able to prescribe any treatments you may require which will be individual to you. Have your questions ready for them, I always manage to forget to ask something.

    Sorry not to be able to answer your question properly but I wanted you to know that you are not alone and that this site is here to help support you so please keep using it.

    Sending love and hugs to you
