Welcome to the forum and sorry to hear that you have been diagnosed with breast cancer.  I was diagnosed recently er positive and her2 negative cancer.  I've had surgery and am now waiting on results as they found some cancer in one of my lymph nodes and I had to have a CT scan and a bone scan.

Have you gotten your treatment plan yet?  When you feel up to it my not give us a little move information about yourself and your diagnosis as it help us give you any support that you might need.

Hello Kikielena

i am E+ P+ & Her2- too

i had 2 tumours removed in Feb via lumpectomy with lymph node involvement & now just done round 5 of chemo ( 3x FEC, 3x T) so 1 more to go

mire surgery planned August as the margins weren’t clear then radiotherapy & hormone therapy 

it’s a bloody mind field in the really early days but we all muddle through, do you have a plan yet?

Ask anything you want, I’m no expert but happy to share with my fellow passengers in this crazy BT’s ride that we never bought tickets for x

I had my surgery already, they found 1 lymph nod with bad cells from 3 that they took out , they wanted to do another surgery to take all my lymph nodes out which i decline and next is chimo 6 session i and radiotherapy and hormonal treatment, i am soo scared for chimo. Thanks

I had mastectomy on my right brest without reconstruction!

I had full lymph node clearance as 24 out of 27 were positive so it was the right thing for me

The thought of chemo petrified me, I only read horror stories so had to change my mind set

everyone is different but I am finding it ok, so much better than I imagined. No nausea or bad days, still working full time from home & only visible sign is hair thinning - I use the cold cap 

I view my “condition “ as something I get out of the drawer every 3 weeks then put it back till the next time- it was not my choice to get this but I will not let it consume my life, so much to do eoying the good things

I wish you the safest of journeys , everyone on this forum is so understanding & can share so much with you
