Recurrent Breast Cancer in the Same Breast 9 Years Later???

Hi, really sorry this could be happening again. So yes, sort of, it sounds like your first BC was more serious than mine but I had DCIS in 2013 and then IDC HER2 positive in 2021, in the same breast. Then I had another lump last year that turned out to be a sebaceous cyst in the armpit above my node clearance. And I’m here, I’m doing well. The fear will never go, having had treatment twice and I know I’m high risk because both occurred before I was 50 and the second was HER2 but. I was scared when I found the 3rd lump and really thought it was game over but it wasn’t. As hard as it is, try and wait until it’s been checked. Hopefully it’s nothing, but if it is something, you will deal with it, exactly as you did the first time, you just need to find a way through. All the best to you. There are others on here who’ve got similar stories. If you click on our names some of us have detailed our BC and treatments. Good luck x

Thanks Anna,    It's lovely to hear from you and to hear a little of your experience and how it echoes my own in the repetition of lumps,   Thanks for talking some common sense into me.    Take care, Jxx

It’s so hard once you’ve been through what we have, natural to worry. Always post when you’re feeling worried or just need to speak to people who know, there’s a good bunch on here. All the best xx
