Hello Everyone, this is my first post. Hoping to chat with those lovely persons who have this particular cancer type, and if they chose Chest Tube insertion with Pleurodesis or opted for IPC, and what their experiences of either were like.
My primary stage 3B ILC ER+Pgr+HER2- breast cancer was diagnosed in December 2013, and I just received the MPE news 11/09/2024.
Thank you and best wishes.
Hi Miss Fun In The Sun and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.
I hope you don't mind me suggesting that you also join and post this in the secondary breast cancer forum as you should then connect directly with others who have metastatic breast cancer.
If you'd like to join that forum, just click on the link I've created and, once you've joined, you can start a new post in the same way as you did here and join in with existing conversations by clicking on 'reply'.
It would be great if you could put something about your diagnosis and treatment to date into your profile as it really helps others when replying to you and also when looking for someone on a similar pathway. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.
Thank you for the tips and link, will do.
Take care!
