Diagnosed in October last year, I’ve had 12 weeks of Paclitaxel, lumpectomy and lymph nodes and 5 sessions of radiotherapy. I’m now on Kadcyla every three weeks and daily Letrozole. I had an MRI a couple of weeks ago and they have found ‘something’ in my spine. I had to go to A&E over the weekend to have neurological tests, which were all ok. I’m now waiting to hear next steps from oncology, I have a call booked tomorrow. I’m really scared, Dr Google is terrifying. Has anyone had similar?
No date yet, last time I got a call the day before. I’ve got some discomfort in my neck but I’ve had that for a long time! Lesion is at T1, consultant isn’t sure it’s cancer related, hence the involvement of the spinal team. I don’t know what to think
I had something on my arm that they wasn’t sure about from a MRI so had a PET, still unsure so had a biopsy and it’s not cancer they think just inflamed.
The whole waiting is horrible. Fingers crossed for you xx
