Just been told I have secondary breast cancer

Hi Daisy12

Sorry to hear that you have been diagnosed with Secondary Breast Cancer.  No  doubt once they do the CT scan they'll come up with a plan for you.

Best wishes

So sorry you have had this news.

How awful to have to tell your children this news.

I don't have children so can't imagine how you go about telling them.

You have dobe well to do that.

I was diagnosed with secondaries to various bones just after finishing treatment for lobular breast cancer.

It will be a year in March and I still haven't fully accepted this is happening to me.

Once you've had your scan your team will put a treatment plan together for you.

I found this the hardest wait but you will feel a little relief once your on something. 

My last scan showed no progression.

Next one on 5th January. 

You will be monitored closely.

I still have days I don't want to get out of bed but somehow we all do.

You will have many ups and downs but that is okay.

I personally don't believe we have to be positive all the time as that is too much to maintain .

Keep us updated in how you get on.

Thanks. I’m sorry to hear what you’re going through. Hope 5 January goes well

I’m so sorry to hear your news. I was diagnosed in February 2023 with secondaries in my bones and it’s a terrible shock to be told this news. I hope you have got a treatment plan sorted out by now and I have days when I don’t do very much and feel very sad, but it’s a lot to deal with.  I’m getting my head around it now and my drugs are keeping it all at bay so far. 
take care of yourself

It is a lot to try and accept but eventually you do to some degree.

We have no other choice.

I'm on targeted therapy past year now , scans have been stable.

Due latest result of scan in May.

Glad to hear your treatment is working too.

Emotionally every day is different, I do cry a lot but it's my way of coping and letting all the stress out..

Please take care I understand how you feel.
