Lobular Cancer

Hi Sparkleandshine

Sorry you are here dealing with BC - I can totally understand your fear.  Think it's a fine line between medical staff giving us the right information and not scaring the wits out of us, but I really do wish they realised the impact their words have on us.  None of us know who will definitely get a recurrence.  On this forum there are ladies who have had no lymph node involvement who have become metastatic (including a friend of mine), and people with many nodes involved who have had extensive treatment who never get a recurrence at all.  Treatment is really good nowadays and only getting better.  I had mixed ductal/lobular with node involvement and just hope that the extensive treatment I was given will keep it at bay for a very long time.  Currently nearly three years out.  When I have really down days, I google latest breast cancer research/news and it really gives me hope.  Hoping someone further down the line can offer you some more reassurance and good luck with your treatment.  Sending hugs x

Hi there I was diagnosed with lobular bc in December and had a mastectomy 2 weeks ago. I am waiting for my pathology results and treatment plan. There is a good fb page lobular ladies. I wouldnt worry too much about reoccurrence. If it does return In 10-15 years then by then imagine the treatment options. Stay positive that’s all we can do. What’s you’re treatment plan x

Sorry just read your treatment plan. Mine is 51cm lobular and in 2 nodes.

Thank you so much for your reply, it is very reassuring. Sending love and healing hugs xxx

Thank you so much for your reply, hope you get your treatment plan soon, sending lots of love and healing hugs xxx

Keep positive I know it’s hard at times. I seem to get blindsided by it!
