Hi, my Diagnosis
locally advanced node positive right breast cancer with synchronous liver metastases. Core biopsy breast grade 2/3 ductal carcinoma, ER 8, HER2 negative (0)
Thought had liver infection ! A lot of words telling me it’s Stage 4 breast cancer. Took me a while to understand it all. Who knew there were so many different types of breast cancer.
The worst thing is watching friends and family struggling with my diagnosis but I feel ok (apart from a couple of post chemo days). And dreading the oncologist phone calls saying “I think we need to move things up to next level”.
Hair loss - no definitely not ready for that! Cold cap was having none of it. Hair was /is coming out. Still there’s some great wigs & hats around.
Has cancer got me, yes it has, positivity - Hell yes, except the days it’s not. Something to look forward to - yes my daughters wedding in November in Australia and I WILL be there
