Should I stop prolia?
Have been on prolia injections for 5 years since breast cancer and double
mastectomy
followed by 3 months of chemo. Next Prolia Due 7/2019. Wasn’t informed of possible side effects but have been researching prolia past 9 months due to feeling like “crap” with no obvious explanation.

Immediate Reconstruction Worries
I had a bilateral
mastectomy
on 03/14/2019 with immediate reconstruction of cohesive silicone implants. My implants are tight, pinching on one side and the other side I can feel the implant in on the side of my rib/chest wall. I need to note I am a obese female. My implants also hang low.

Latest outcome from Lu177 treatments
I had no brothers, but had two sisters, one died from Oa, other survived after double
mastectomy
. My father's mother died maybe from Oa and dad dies from melanoma, so plenty cancer in my family on my fathers side of family.

Dumb question?
Has anyone, or some one you know, turned down curative total gastrectomy when offered? I know it is the only hope of a cure.

NotGivingUp
Young mum with advanced gastric cancer, which was misdiagnosed for 7 months as I didn’t fit the profile of the average gastric cancer patient. Now going for PIPAC in Europe, which is aerosol chemo to the peritoneum with the objective of holding back peritoneal spread and potentially putting me back in

Breast Cancer/Hashi .. search for a good Endo ?
She is in remission from Breast Cancer (

Life after mastectomy
I'm looking for this who had a
mastectomy
and can share best bras, sports bras, swimsuits, and breast forms. I had one breast removed in Dec 2017. I do not care for the silicon prosthetic I was given. Bras do not stay in place.

Starting next week I am having to do a 2 week pre operation diet. This consists of either 4 pints of semi skimmed a day or up to 1000 calories worth of low fat yogurt. The diet is to shrink my liver before gaul bladder removal surgery. I am anxious: I want to get it right. I am not sure what option to

Sotalol
I had an ablation in October 2016 which was successful until I had a
mastectomy
in January 2018 when I went into AF. Since then I have had a few episodes of AF which seem to be getting more frequent and lasting longer.

Burning pain in back
I had a left
mastectomy
2 years ago, followed by lymp node removal as trace of cancer in the one they removed. They removed 9 which were all clear. I had chemo and radio after. My question is have anyone experienced the same burning feeling?

BCS or Mastectomy
Oncologist is asking us whether we want breast conservative surgery or
Mastectomy
. They need to fix some metallic marker in case of BCS. I invite suggestions or pros and cons of both!

Life after diagnosis, surgery and treatment
I had a
mastectomy
in Dec 2017 followed by chemo from January to May 2018. I had HER2 so continued Herceptin until Dec 2018. Now I'm on an Estrogen blocker for 5 years and getting back to "normal". After losing most of my hair I was brave enough to go without head covers in Nov 2018.

Stomach cancer confirmed
Although I was expecting this result It is still a bitter pill to swallow. Now the medical team will discuss my options. I may get to know their opinions in 5 days day. The thing is - what option would or should I choose if offered? 1) Gastrectomy if the surgeon is willing to take the risk at my age
