Hi all. I've recently been diagnosed with breast cancer. I'm getting my final treatment plan tomorrow and am beside myself with worry as it might be a mastectomy and chemo. I'm glad to be here.x
Hi. Sorry you have been diagnosed with breast cancer. There is a lot of help on here. I found it best to just take one step at a time and deal with what was/is immediately in front of me. I took a friend with me to my appointments and found the support invaluable. I hope you can have someone with you. I wish you all the best.
Hi Daisy. Thanks for your lovely response. You're right. One hurdle at a time. Its hard not to project isn't it. Its life changing . I will deal with the outcome tomorrow. Hopefully its back to the initial pathway of lumpectomy and radiotherapy but they brought me in for more biopsies and said its multifocal-well it might be. Will find out tomorrow. Xx thank you. Natx
Hi again . I was the same biopsy . Mammogram. MRI more biopsies. Now been given letrozole and another 5 weeks to wait for surgery . I can’t change my path I am currently on I just have to ride with it and don’t give up . sending strength your way x
I was also given Anastrazole prior to surgery to block Oestrogen. All cancer gone, they tell me, following op, chemotherapy and Radiotherapy and ongoing Herceptin injections us Anastrazole all preventative treatment as was Oestrogen receptive HER2. Jo
Oh that's good news (as good as this kind of news can be),so you have the estrogen receptive type?that's what I've got as well. Is mxt a mastectomy?or partial mastectomy?I'm really sorry you are going through this.x
