Hi. New here. Yesterday I got the confirmation it is breast cancer (everything pointed towards that but I needed the biopsy results for the official diagnosis which I got yesterday). Stage 2/3 estrogen positive. Hep negative. I'm going to be put into a medically induced menopause which is actually an answer to prayers because they had told me I would have to stop the medication which controls my nightmare periods & menstrual cycle triggered nightmare IBS so I was terrified of having to go back into that hell. I'm only perimenopausal naturally. My response when they told me this at the mammogram, ultrasound, biopsy and see a consultant 1st appointment had me immediately ask for a hysterectomy. They didn't tell me about the existence of injections to induce menopause till yesterday's appointment. The cancer itself hasn't spread & appears to be likely to be cured by surgery. So not all that scary. May have to be done under local as I'm high risk for general anithetics which means they won't be able to take the lymph node out.
