Oh Doreen I am so very sorry that you are going through such a dreadful time. I sincerely hope that you get your scan soon and a treatment plan. Do you have support? I can only imagine how stressed and anxious you are. Huge virtual Cwtches xxx
Hi Doreen2014, sorry to hear your news. I've had lupus for over 20 years and was diagnosed with ductal invasive breast cancer last year and ductal carcinoma in situ. Fortunately it hadn't spread to the lymph nodes for me. I've now had 2 surgeries and radiotherapy and am on medication for the next 10 years. Throughout my treated they kept a close eye on me because of my lupus and that was reassuring. I am still recovering and I'm slowly on the mend and am looking forward to putting this behind me. I wish you all the best with your future treatment plan. Take care❤️ x
I know my Mum found the waiting agonising and I too felt it with her, but obviously not on or anywhere near the same level. All we did was wait and she did what she wanted to do when she wanted to do it. I sprang into action when needed for hospital appointments and hand holding and all the other stuff that I felt so useless about. I'm so sorry for your diagnosis. That's all I've got. Anything else would, I feel be not from my heart. I only know how the Lupus part of you might feel. Namaste 🙏 🧘♀️❤
Let's wait with you sending positivity and loads of love. I found with my Dad especially once he had his treatment plan, it was from what seemed like nothing to warp factor maximum literally over a weekend. Namaste Doreen 2014 🙏❤💋
Oh Doreen what a horrible anxious time for you having to wait 😕. So glad you posted as no doubt there will be others on here that have been in your position and will be able to offer words of wisdom and support .
Sending you a big hug and please be super kind to yourself .. more than normal for sure
So sorry to hear Doreen. My sister has lupus and was diagnosed with breast cancer last July. Initially the hospital did not want to give her any form of radiotherapy after her operation, due to her lupus. We argued this point with them and she has since had a lumpectomy and radiotherapy. The worry was that the radiotherapy would bring on a huge lupus flare up that may be non reversible or very long lasting. I’m happy to confirm that although she did get a flare up it has been nowhere near as bad as we were expecting. So stand up for whatever you want to happen/do. Sending you lots of gentle hugs and healing wishes.
BTW, please tell me something about your gorgeous little dog. I lost my little man 3 years ago and my big girl last July, so I'm one of these pathetic ladies who stops all the dogs in the street and loves them to bits whilst the owners get very twitchy. 🙈😄. Looks like Fern might fall into that category 🤔 x
OMG. She's just the most gorgeous girl. My boy Maxy was sold to us as a Lhasa, but see what you think. Thanks for sharing. They are the most loyal and loving companions. She will always be there for you. Namaste 🙏 x
Many hugs and cwtches to you. I don't have experience of both, but my mother had breast cancer about 20 years ago. She had a mastectomy and eventually a reconstruction. I've had a (benign) lumpectomy.
Thinking of you and I hope your treatment plan isn't too awful x
