NEED A little luck, here...feeling a bit shaky
CT scan upcoming tomorrow. results of that and blood tests by 27 Aug. I was doing well, until about a week ago my shortness of breath got worse, and the amount of fluid in my lung has started to go up. I have no idea why, and am afraid my blood tests and new CT scan will be bad news . Writing because

Good Scan Results
Went for bone, Mammo, and chest abdomen and pelvic ct last week. Was so lit up with all the contrast and isotopes. Tough long day that I basically read and meditated my way through. Got results yesterday and they’re very good. On Faslodex each scan gets better. Nothing new, everything shrunk. I have

Breast cancer has traveled to my bones
Hi Yesterday I received the results from my CT and Bone scan. My consultant confirmed that not only has my breast cancer returned to the left side but I that it has spread to my bones. It is showing in my spine, rib and pelvis as well as the lymph nodes on both sides of my collar bone. I am seeing

Recall after 2nd annual mammogram
I have been very lucky. I had a lumpectomy for DCIS 2 years ago. This recall is the result of my second annual mammogram and is from the radiologist not the breast surgeon. I had 6 weeks of daily dressings after my lumpectomy as I had a large haematoma ( I'm on anticoagulants) which left a deep hole

Challenging Week!
Like many of you in this amazing group, I too had a difficult week. It was time for my scan and I also had an ultrasound of my breast. After 9 months on Ibrance, Letrozole, and Xgeva, first line of treatment, the two tumors in my breast show a marked improvement and still no lymph node involvement. After

Clonidine
Hi lovely ladies, I've been prescribed Clonidine by the nurse practitioner, it's to help with my night time hot flushes and lack of sleep due to this. I did check with her whether it would be OK with my tamoxifen and the answer was yes it's fine. However, this morning I woke up in a bit of a panic as

Treatment
I’m curious how many with lobular breast cancer here are on Ibrance/Letrozole or other combinations and have not had any other therapy; i.e., mastectomy, chemotherapy, radiation.

Mo betta!! Yay! Lower Ibrance & Faslodex
Just wanted to update everyone on the difference in my side effects and quality of life since my MBC regimen was changed!! I am no longer on exemestane (an AI). I am now on Faslodex injections. Also my Ibrance dose was lowered from 125mg down to 100mg. The difference in my side effects is SO MUCH BETTER

Transference of Chemo.
Another possible stupid question for you ladies.... Both Ibrance and Faslodex are forms of chemo correct? Any chance of transferring any of that to my infant granddaughter? Seems far fetched but I worry about those things. Thank you❤

Next steps
Hi All I've just got back from seeing my oncologist to get my latest scan results, and the good news is that the bone mets are stable but he thinks there may be a nodule on my liver. The scan has gone back to the radiologist for further intereptation but the oncologist wasn't hopeful. It looks like

Holidays
I am new here. I am from Canada and am getting faslodex injections monthly. We go to Palm Springs for 5 months in the winter. Just wondering if anyone knows the best way I can keep getting my monthly injections in Palm Springs. Anyone else have this situation? Grateful for suggestions. Thank you

Relapsed after 40 months in remission
Several days ago a CT/PET detected lymphoma progression wife (72) who was in remission since her CAR-T infusion in March 2016. Monday she will get a lymph node biopsy to see whether her follicular lymphoma has transformed into something else. Any thoughts on the next treatment?

Update on possible radiation on early SLL, and uh, yay for lymphoma?
Hi CLLers, happy August 2019. I wrote a couple months back to ask about people's experience with radiation for SLL. I had detectable SLL in one node only, received a tiny bit of radiation in 2017 (4Gys), then this year my oncologist wanted to re-stage to see if more radiation would be helpful. I was

DIEP flap
I'm considering doing this type of reconstruction surgery instead of implants, as I'm quite large breasted and it would feel much more natural I think. Does it? Do the drains hurt while in? While being taken out? Honestly, another reason the DIEP was chosen is I've recently lost 70 pounds (purposely)
