My New Keto Life......
Hi, This is my first post, although I commented on others posts and love that we have a place to go and share. I was diagnosed with breast cancer the first time at 34 years old. Since I was young and triple negative with only one node positive, I had a partial radical mastectomy and 6 months of grueling

Aliens , chemo and Cymbalta ?
This is day 7 after my first infusion last Tuesday for second recurrence in my peri Aortic lymph nodes. It's the heavy guns of Carbo / TaxoI which first zapped these aliens when I was diagnosed in 2011. NED until 2016 when it recurred in the same lymph nodes. Despite my protestations I was given Carbo

Portal vein thrombosis & gall bladder removal
Back and forth to London Bridge Hospital this week and after recent MRI, CT & MRCP scans, we finally have a verdict and plan of action. Peeps’ portal vein is completely blocked by the thrombosis despite Rivaroxaban, Warfarin and Clexane injections and this in turn has caused varices in his bile ducts

New to MBC, diagnosed early December, conflict with original oncologist. Now with one I have all the confidence in.
Went through bc and mastectomy in2003 and 2008. Fine till Mar of 2018. Thought all through 2018 needed hip replacement. Wrong MRI and all other show widespread cancer in bones, connect the dot type in spine, hips and skull. Luckily not in organs. Waiting on radiologist eval, and waiting to start Verzenio

What showed up on my scan? 🤷♀️
My latest scan showed no progression! And diminishing uptake over all in bone mets. Good news! But 2 things that were interesting and questionable were on there. First it said I had 2 healing fractures in my ribs. (News to me) And 2 I had thickening in mastectomy region similar to that produced by radiation

How my AF started...
Question for all the very knowledgeable people on here: Background: I had a Sleeve Gastrectomy (weight loss surgery) in 2012. Extremely successful up until 3 years ago when I began to gain weight but I wasn’t eating more. Then I started having to force myself to be sick after eating just a tiny bit

New invasive on mastectomy side.
I am new to this site and to metastatic breast cancer. I had a mastectomy 12 years ago for Dcis. Unfortunately I have now fallen into the less than 2% of people who get a cancer from the less than 5% of breast tissue left behind. I found fullness and a mass in the arm pit. Anyone else have this experience

Age.... what’s age?
I decided a long time ago that age was only a number. I used to purposely leave it off my CV if I was job hunting. This wasn’t because I was precious about it but because I knew whatever age I was I could do the job, probably just as well if not better than the younger ones. People often said to me

Back pain after eating
Hi Wondering if anyone can offer advice? I had a total gastrectomy 3 weeks ago, so I’m aware it’s very early days and everything is probably working really hard. I’ve been doing ok, I was having a few hard days over the weekend, bloating and uncomfortable and diarrhoea. I’ve been given digestive enzymes
