Dbl Mastectomy
I had my double mastectomy Wed, the 4th and came home the 5th. Minimal pain, and not much drainage. Has my 1st dressing change on Friday and it doesn't look bad at all. I thought I'd react badly to it; cry, scream, yell, get angry or be mortified but I never felt any of that, instead I felt "hey, that

Lymphatic fluid/Seroma
Good morning all, Was just wondering if anyone can put my mind at rest? I had a mastectomy and full axillary lymph node clearance last week, with no drains. Although I appreciate that it is early days, I have noticed a whoosing sound (like a hot water bottle) of what I presume is lymphatic fluid/seroma

How do you cope with family indifference?
Hi my MPN family. To understand my question you will first have to understand my story. I have never been close to my siblings because of the way they treated our parents and how my parents care was left to me with no help from the others. I was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2009 and had a double

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.

The last week in June I put my house up for sale, the 3rd of July having found a lump in my breast i went to the walk in clinic

Extra cover for dental extraction
Hi. This is my first post and I need some advice. I’ve had PMR for just over three years and am currently taking 2.5mg pred. I also currently have raging tooth ache and although I am trying to deny it I’m pretty sure I am going to have to see a dentist and pretty sure they’ll want to extract it as I’

New PET SCAN
My wife underwent post chemo PET CT and report is good. Still local and main lump almost gone. Mastectomy in 2 weeks. As she is Her2 + she shall be on Herceptin or on biosimilars for rest of the year. My question this time is whether insurance pays for Herceptin infusion post mastectomy in India ?

Costochondritis, does anyone have information about this condition ?
I have been experiencing pain in my ribs around the chest area. I have had a mastectomy, and the pain is predominantly in the ribs which are now only lightly covered by flesh. My cancer care nurse suggested that it could be a condition called Costochondritis. Had anyone heard of this condition of know

HER2 positive treatment recommendation
I am writing on behalf of my mother who has been diagnosed with breast cancer. She has already undergone total mastectomy followed by chemo port insertion. Dr has recommended 4x AC 3 Wkly + (Wkly Taxol *12 + Herceptin(3 Wkly) ). The total cost of treatment is beyond 15L even after Blue tree program.

Delaying starting tamoxifen
Hi all, I was diagnosed in April with IDC (ER+|PR+ HER2-)and had 2 unsuccessful lumpectomies followed by a unilateral mastectomy with immediate implant reconstruction on July 1st last. My oncotype score was 13 and as the mastectomy had clear margins I thankfully don’t need either chemo or radiotherapy

Side effects of radiotherapy on patients with SLE
Hi I was diagnosed with lupus 11 years ago. I've been really lucky in that, aside from the initial flare (bilateral pleural effusion with a very small amount of fluid around my heart) from which I was diagnosed, I haven't had any major problems, in fact 2 years ago I was told I might not even have lupus
