My journey
I was diagnosed with breast cancer 2010, had a
mastectomy
and lymph node removal. I them had chemotherapy, followed by radiotherapy then reconstruction. Unfortunately while being tested for chemo they found a lung cancer and removed one of my lobes.

Help! New here...
I have a ductal carcinoma stage 3 and I have been told I will go through a
mastectomy
. My doctor said that after the surgery they will decide the rest of the treatment based on the sentinel lymph node biopsy results. I am feeling a little lost, what should I expect?

Another first post
I hope you don't mind if I summarise my cancer history, starting with breast cancer (lumpectomy + radiotherapy) in 1985,
mastectomy
in 2006, and removal of a chest nodule in 2009. Then the real whammy: diagnosis of ovarian (or peritoneal?) cancer in July 2013.

Personalised Breast cancer care.
Much has changed since the 1980s, when
mastectomy
-- or surgical removal of the breast -- was the go-to treatment for all types of breast cancer. Today's approach prefers to target just the tumour, called a lumpectomy.

Progress
After intensive tests, consultations and an iron infusion I have decided to go ahead and risk having a
mastectomy
with removal of some lymph nodes.

New to this and not sure what to think
Hi ladies, I want to introduce myself and ask your opinion. I am 36, have two sons aged 3 and almost 5, both were normal pregnancies and deliveries. Up til my 1st son, I was on the pill (from the age of 16 I think). My periods were never a problem, I didn't track them because they weren't troublesome

PPC - back on the merry go round
The things I am thankful for is that I was able to go on an amazing trip to South Africa (recurrence Conf day after I returned) and then I was due to go in the following week for my double
mastectomy
and that didn't go ahead. I don't think I could have faced chemo whilst recovering from that op.

Hi all, hope your all well :) Basically my story is complicated so I'll start from the beginning; I'm 30 yrs old, I had a miscarriage in March, that was when I discovered I have Endometriosis. Since then things have moved quickly. I'm due (8th October) to go in for Bilateral Laparoscopic Ovarian/Adnexal
