Lupus and cancer
Oncologist was brilliant had done a lot of research into cancer with APS and Lupus. Opted for mastectomy to try and avoid having to have Chemo or Radiotherapy. He agreed it was better to avoid them if at all possible. Hopefully nothing shows up in Lymph nodes!

Hello from Clair in the Hill Country of Texas
Hello everyone, I am new to the group but have gotten so much valuable information and I thank you. I had a mastectomy in June of 2017 and felt like I was almost to 5 years. A new oncologist started in my practice and we had a great initial meeting where she asked lots of questions. She asked if I had

Ibs flare up or something else?
Hi, for the last 2 weeks my stomach issues have re-emerged: excessive wind (belching & flatulence), lots of gurgling in stomach, diarrhoea, gnawing pain around lower ribs, intestinal aches&cramps, and generally feeling wiped out. Have been gluten free for years due to being moderately intolerant, and

Post surgical nerve pain issues?
I'm wondering if anyone has had issues with nerve pain following mastectomy surgery? I had a bilateral mastectomy 4 month ago had really bad nerve pain after the surgical drugs wore off. After 6 weeks I had a nerve block done. It really helped for quite a while but now I am having issues - tightness

Combining medications/effects post surgery/meds not as effective
Hello, in the last month the Temgesic has not been as effective in controlling my RLS. This could be due to one month ago undergoing surgery. I was told just before xmas that I had breast cancer. On 3 Feb 2021 I had bilateral mastectomy surgery. My body was exposed to various GA medications plus after

Good Scan/Bad Scan/A Little Surgery
Well...my last scan Jan 25 showed my lungs and all organs clear. Woo hoo!! However, I have 2 lymph nodes on the same side as my mastectomy that are around 1 cm each. I’m having surgery in the morning to remove those. Once they are out I won’t have any tumors!!! It’s been 2 years and 4 months since my

So for 20+ years have been in and

New regime for Primary Peritoneal grade 4 and breast/axilla grade 3.
Greetings to everyone. I Am reading posts everyday and recognise that everyone has a different story to tell and a wealth of experience to share. In a nutshell, My diagnosis for PPC high grade serous was last Spring. I reacted to paclitaxol so had chemo just with Carboplatin. In Autumn I was ready for

CT scan
Not me, a member of my family has been diagnosed with breast cancer for a 2nd time. Not sure what type. All I know it the lump is a centimetre, has come from a duct. She has been offered a lumpectomy with radiotherapy or 2nd mastectomy with medication for five years. I’m worried now though as she has

Anyone on Ibrance have lowering haemoglobin and rising liver enzyme AST? Concerned it may be cancer in marrow....
Hi all I've been on Ibrance and Letrozole since MBC diagnosis in August 2019 to bones and marrow (after primary bilateral mastectomy, immediate lat dorsi reconstruction, chemo, rads, and Herceptin in 2010). Stable CT scans since, but now AST liver enzyme rising, my Ferritin (which is odd with low haemoglobin

Need your opinion
I always try to be upbeat about my posts. Don't post often, but enjoy reading about the strength of all of you warriors. I was diagnosed in 2016 with a very small cancer in left breast. Had lumpectomy and 21 rounds of left breast radiation. Like so many, I thought I was done. I was told recurrence

Hello all. I am new to the site. I have been searching for a MBC-specific group to join since our situation is vastly different than many others. I went through my initial Breast Cancer starting in 2012. Stage 3. Chemo, radiation, bilateral mastectomy, reconstruction. All was well until October

Sorry about your onc’s personality or the lack thereof. Fortunately mine is personable and easy to talk to and the age of my grandchildren. I’m a young 74 year old because I claim it. Not everyday but 95 % of the time. I’ve been in Ibrance, letrozole and exjavi for 19 months. It took 6 months to get

How did you find out your breast cancer had metastasized?
I discovered a lump in my right breast in Jan 2014, had a mastectomy and did not need any other treatment. In June of 2019, I felt a small lump on my head. It did not go away, so I went to my dermatologist. She took one look and said that is metastatic breast cancer. I have been on Faslodex ever since

Letrozole (Femara} vs Arimidex
Hi Ladies. I hear the daffodils in Scotland are peeking through so we have Spring to look forward to. No sign of them here in Wa State but maybe I’ve just missed them. A little history is that I had a double mastectomy in 2007 with reconstruction for invasive BC. Chemo wasn’t suggested and I declined

Break in Avastin
HI Everyone Has anyone got any thoughts or experience of a break in their Avastin cycle... Briefly I had my 4th infusion on 4th December 2020 then found out I need a mastectomy on 19th January for a stage 3 breast and lymph node cancer. My 2 cancers are unrelated apparently. So... After healing I think

Diagrams illustrate the nature of surgery for an oesophagectomy and for a
gastrectomy
, and the changes to the anatomy of the digestive tract. It is useful not only for those who have undergone either of the two surgical operations, but also for carers, relatives and friends of the patient.
