Fluctuating CA 15-3 tumor marker
Lumpectomy
, no rads/ chemo. Oncotype test showed low % recurrence. Feel great. Oncologist wants PET/CT due to increase in markers. Mine seemed to go up and down. Also my alka phosphatase level up to 175. Read Anastrozole could be culprit. Extremely high anxiety til scan done on Wednesday.

Early Stage or In Situ and MBC recurrence
I opened for a Mastectomy and reconstruction as my dr said recurrence rate is less than 2 % as opposed to
lumpectomy
with radiation and approximately 13% recurrence. Seemed like a no brainer to me at 59. They found clusters of cancer cells in one lymph node.

Newbie on the site - Breast Cancer IDC & HER2
I had the
lumpectomy
and node biopsy late January and had my first weekly chemo last week (Taxol weekly + Herceptin every 3 weeks). Is anyone else on the same treatment plan? I’m curious if you found that side effects worsened with each treatment?

Radiation and CLL?
I had my second
lumpectomy
last Friday. Had a reoccurrence after two years. Drs said I now need radiation to my left breast. They removed two more lymph nodes and they were clear for breast cancer but still showed up the CLL. I’m on W&W. Does this mean all lymph nodes if tested would show CLL?

Is discharge from breast something to be concerned about?
I do not have breast cancer, but I'm high risk due to family history and I had a
lumpectomy
last year due to ADH. I'm about to turn 60 and a few weeks ago, I started noticing a small amount of clear discharge from my left breast only.

Radiotherapy and Chemotherapy treatment affecting my lungs.
I had Chemo,
lumpectomy
and radiotherapy. My lungs have been damaged a lot after my cancer treatment. I started experiencing shortness of breath a month after radiotherapy and it got worse over a few months. Now I am diagnosed with Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis and Bronchiolitis.

Need some support!
Hi, my partner had a
lumpectomy
/node dissection 3 weeks ago and is going to start chemo in 2 weeks. Hoping this is a place I can connect with people during the process. We are pretty scared of what's to come, but doing our best to cope. Thanks, Asherlove

Chiropractor or not
Four years ago I had breast cancer on right breast and was treated with
lumpectomy
and radiotherapy which included underarm radiotherapy and some areas of right side chest as cancer was found in two lymph nodes.

Cancer again
I had breast cancer two years ago and had a
lumpectomy
with no chemo or radiation. My cancer is now back in same breast. Thinking of a mastectomy this time but still concerned that the CLL might be an underlying cause.

Still no direct answers
Since being diagnosed with first inflammatory breast cancer then told it was a typo, it was actually stage 3b invasive ductal carcinoma after a
lumpectomy
in December of 2017 and them insisting I rush into dense dose chemo, it’s been a nightmare of a different kind.
