Mastectomy scheduled
After the waiting period following scans and more biopsies I’m having a radical mastectomy on Monday . The consultant said the scan showed no spinal involvement but there are two separate types of tumour in the rt breast . As I’m a 38DD it will be very noticeable I guess , but that’s the least of the

Life is unfare
I had my mastectomy in late December 2016, had to spend 3 months in a nursing home because of various problems and they looked after me wonderfully. Then this year I had 2 melanomas on my skin which had to be lazered of. Then my husband died end of July and now I have 3 hospital appointments to attend

Hi everyone from NZ. I got lymphedema in my left arm 12 years ago following a double mastectomy post Inflammatory Breast Cancer. I have had cellulitis several times and my GP used to give me anti-biotics if I was going away. However my new GP won't - says see a Dr when overseas. Not always possible!

Bone Metastatic cancer treatment
I was diagnosed Breast lobular invasive cancer stage II on 2014, I had bilateral mastectomy, Radiation and Chemotherapy. On August 2017 my cancer came back to metastatic bone cancer and I have been on Ibrance, Letrozole and Xgeva since 9/17. My cancer markers went down, I was feeling better even when

6 month check-up: feeling great, but whoops!
So, I have been wanting to post about my recovery after first line treatment for high grade serous Ovarian Cancer, but I thought I would wait for my sixth month check up. They only run a CA-125 blood test and talk to us, and only require a CT scan if your CA-125 climbs. I have been feeling better and

NHS won't replace my implants!
I have inherited a faulty BRCA2 gene with my mother and sister dying from ovarian cancer. Because I was alerted there was a connection between breast cancer and ovarian cancer, my breast cancer was discovered early. After a mastectomy and implants over 20 years ago, I was told by the hospital that

a roller coaster that you don't want tickets for
I was diagnosed in December 2017 with stage 2B lobular breast cancer. After a left breast mastectomy in January 2018, chemo, and radiation, the cancer has metastasized to my bones... Any advice on how to weather this new development?

Radiotherapy dilemma
Hi, I've recently had a mastectomy and reconstruction with an implant after being diagnosed with DCIS. I've now been recommended to have radiotherapy treatment and concerned about the risk of lung cancer and the destruction of the implant. Is there anyone who has similar concerns? Really not sure whether

mbc spread in bones and liver
Just wondering about others out there that have had success in treatment of MBC. After breast cancer and a mastectomy, chemo, and radiation and making my 5 years, I have now been told the breast cancer has moved to my liver and bones. Was taking Ibrance but apparently it stopped working. Now on Afinitor

I haven’t been very active on the website recently but I always take time every day to read the trials and tribulations of so many brave women. I get strength from reading their stories . Now I need them more than ever. Since I was first diagnosed with PPC in 2011 this unwelcome visitor has arrived

Chemotherapy schedule okay?
I met my doctor today & he suggested 6 cycles of CAF every 21 days. I am 41 years old, TNBC, stage 2a, grade 2, all lymph nodes clear, margins clear. I had mastectomy on 15 June. My question is standard procedure for TNBC is 4 AC followed by 12 weekly taxol. Why is mine different??? Do i need to have

Mammogram with MBC
Does anyone have advice on getting a mammogram with MBC? My doctor said it was up to me. I’m 46 and had a mastectomy on my right side 7 years ago. The cancer returned in November. I wasn’t happy with the vague answer from my doctor.
