Hi all,recently diagnosed with grade one breast cancer,also have CLL,am on watch and wait,no treatment for it so far,so all ok in that department,was booked in for lumpectomy this week,but it has been put off until next week.
my question is,has anyone here had the same as me,and was your CLL any problem re.breast surgery?
many thank in advance for any info
Hi Gotchya and welcome to this corner of the Community although always sorry to see folks joining us. I am Mike and I help out around our blood cancer groups.
I don’t have CLL but I have talked with a few folks who have had a blood cancer and BC at the same time.
Could I suggest you put up a post in the Breast cancer group as there are far more people in the BC group and will open your question up to a wider group of people ((hugs))
Well Mike,have just read your profile ,what can I say,bloody hell Mr.Iron man,you sure have done the distance through your journey.Hats of to you and your family.Great blog.
Just one of many treatment journeys you will read over these groups - you do what you have to do to get through
Hi star,much has happened since I last posted on here.Hope your remission hangs around for long time,nothing changed re my CLL thankfully and my bresat cancer ended up all good.At the time I posted was worried any meds . might trigger something off with the old cancer,but all good.
Stay well
