20 years later and diagnosed again with breast cancer

Hello.  So sorry to hear your news.  It must have really knocked your confidence after so long being clear.  Awake  thread more active and there's a lady in there just had surgery for a recurrence. To join thread navigate to last post by hitting >> and just reply to last post.  

Is your a recurrence or new primary? 

This is a new primary. 

Hi Nibble

Welcome to the forum and I am sorry to hear that you have been diagnosed with breast cancer again. I was first diagnosed with breast cancer nearly for years ago in my left breast. Then last year I was diagnosed with a new breast cancer in my right breast.. I had a lumpectomy and a node taken during surgery which was cancerous. I had chemo and radiotherapy and finished treatment about a month ago.

Wishing you the best of luck with whatever comes next for you.

Best wishes

Hi Daisy53

Thanks Nibble.

Hi,  I too was diagnosed last year, same breast after 31 years! First they said a new primary, but changed to recurrence. Had a mastectomy, all good so far, it had not spread.

Hi Casmo

Wow 31 years. Good news that it hasn't spread. Hope your coping ok, still challenging in itself to have had a mastectomy. I had the same 20 years ago.
