Still here & BRCA elective Mastectomy
Hi all! Just thought I’d pop my head up and say hello and that I’m still here. 🎉 As I’m now 6 years 😱 post OC treatment I’ve taken the plunge and am having the operation to remove my potentially life threatening boobs! (I found out post OC that I’m BRCA 1 so have a ridiculously high chance of getting

Hello
I was first diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer in 2001 I had a mastectomy with reconstructive surgery followed by chemo and radiation. Following that I was put on Tamoxifen Arimidex and Taxol. After being off for 5 years last year in 2022 I was diagnosed in the other breast with cancer. I had surgery

Struggling to have a physical body
I've been diagnosed as BRCA1 positiveIn Nov. 2022 I had a bilateral mastectomy On Aug 17 I had my ovaries and fallopian tubes removed. These were both surgeries to prevent me from hopefully developing cancer in the future. I also have alopecia areata (have had for 19 years) I'm really struggling to

Alcohol 🤷♀️
I put on so much weight that I took myself off to Turkey and had a sleeve
gastrectomy
! This helped be lose three stones but again, the crap crept in and I’ve started to put weight on again. I’m busting a gut again, beating myself up knowing that my diabetes etc is trying worse again.

Hi At age 32 I had a triple negative tumour removed (lumpectomy) followed by chemo and radiotherapy. Fast forward 31 years I have just had a mastectomy after I had an oestrogen positive tumour. No chemo needed-phew! The op was 3 weeks ago & I still have a large haematoma that has already been drained

Must manage your own healthcare
Hi everyone! I’m Jennifer. Found my breast cancer because God gave me an itch right on top of my tumor. It was 26mm and not seen on the 3D mammogram. I now tell everyone I know that women cannot rely on mammograms to find breast cancer. Must do regular self exams. Had double mastectomy and found macrometatastisis

Coming off Pramipexole
I'm a 65 year old female in Norfolk in the UK, with hereditary RLS for which I was prescribed X1 every evening 0.088mg Pramipexole some 10 (possibly?) years ago. A year ago I had a single mastectomy, am on Anastrazole oestrogen suppressant hormone treatment and a Calcium/D3 supplement for that, along

My Journey - Breast Cancer
So far - I'm Lucky. On March 8th - my husband found a lump on my right breast. He was so sweet - Honey - when was your last Mamo. July 2023 - Why. And then he showed me what he felt. After a sleepless night - right to the Gyno - no worries about apts. I needed to see them. They got me a Mamo

Sore leg muscles
Hi....I had a double mastectomy in Jan 2023 and finished my 4th and final chemo treatment one month ago. Since my 3rd treatment I have experienced extremely sore leg muscles 24/7 with no improvement. Has anyone else had this side effect?

Methotrexate and Pantoprazole contra indicated
I need these having had a sleeve
gastrectomy
a year ago and I have Barrett’s Oesophagus so it’s really important to keep on top of stomach acid. What is the alternative, if there is one? Thanks!

Afinitor side effects
I have been in treatment for breast cancer since 2006 and have done the drill - lumpectomy, lymph nodes removal, chemo, radiation, herceptin, Arimidex for six years… then in 2019 a mastectomy, more hormone blockers, and three years of various combinations with Ibrance, which has sadly stopped working

Total Gastrectomy
Hi Has anyone had a total
gastrectomy
that is willing to contact me and give me advice etc. I am due to have one in November due to a large adenoma in my stomach which they cannot be 100% sure does not have cancer in. Obviously I am very scared at the prospect of having no stomach.
