Hi ….from a newly dx’d comrade from the UK
I’m 56 and I’ve recently been dx’d with lobular ER+ breast cancer (2cm), go back to see consultant on Monday for MRI results. I have a lumpectomy & sentinel lymph node removal scheduled for the 28th March. Drs Initial plan was for removal, tamoxifen & chemo….but that may have changed since MRI

Starting Xeloda soon
I am a rare case for Johns Hopkins. Dx de novo ER/Pr +, Her2 - almost 8 years ago. Two very tiny liver mets only. Did extremely well and achieved NED status on Ibrance and AI for 6.5 years when we noticed the primary site of cancer in the breast was growing. Switched to Faslodex and Fulvestrant.

Rant! Rant! Rant!
It’s hard to talk about cancer because there are so many things people do differently in treatment, so many choices we make. I don’t get offended much but someone said something today that kind of hit me the wrong way. I never understood why stage iv cancer patients were offended by those who didn’t

Had my lap today.
Thought I'd update on my surgery today for anyone that hasn't had theirs yet. My bilateral cystectomy went really well. I had three rods put in and my ovarian cysts were pulled out through my belly button (lol ewww). Had endometrial ablation and mirena. Turns out I was absolutely riddled with endo but

Wish me luck, I'm nervous. Having ovarian cystectomy, endometrial ablation and mirena. 😬 Did anyone take wind medication afterwards? Lol.

Not great odds!!
Well, today we got confirmation that we have been booked in for transfer on Sunday. We are using donor eggs with my DH sperm. Both were frozen as DH has had a failed vasectomy reversal. We had 9 eggs, 5 thawed successfully but only 2 fertilised. When I spoke to the endrometriologist, I got the impression

Well, so much for feeling normal....
Some of you may have read my long story on the Enhertu infusion. I have it in my lungs, spine and then it spread to my liver and the next treatment (Xeloda, I think) and after three months still progression. If you have the time, grab a cup of coffee and read. OR, if you are having trouble sleeping

Taking collagen
Is collagen worth taking? I have been diagnosed with osteopenia and am taking Risedronate. I am also taking Anastrozole after having a mastectomy . I take vitD and K , my diet is good and I walk every day. Just wondering if there’s anything else I can do to improve my bone health. Thanks.

Former art teacher with a passion for travel
Former art teacher. I started traveling in my fifties and it became my passion (I’ve visited 41 countries so far!) until Covid and then my stage 4 diagnosis came. Diagnosed with IDC stage 3 in 2015. My great-grandmother had breast cancer in the 1920s, and an aunt had it when she was in her mid-eighties

Start of first cycle
I am just about to start my first cycle. Anyone else at the same point in their journey? I had a mock cycle which went well with Progynova increasing my lining really well but it also showed up 3 polyps, which were large and needed removing as they could have affected the transfer. All removed now

Fatty Liver with Gall Bladder removal?
Wondering how many here had a fatty liver that progressed after gall bladder removal. From what I have read once the gall bladder is removed ox bile or bile salts should be taken to help the liver process the fat in your food. I didn’t know this until 1 year after my removal so I wonder if this had anything

Tricky question... painful topic
Hi all, I've been with my current partner for 7 years, married for almost 2. We've been struggling to conceive for 6 of those years after a failed vasectomy reversal. Due to our history from when my SO used to be an alcoholic (he used to be VERY abusive and still has the odd rare mild episode) we are

Almost forgot I have PC
I have been off the grid for a while. Back in late November, I started having bladder problems including bleeding, urgency, frequency and incontinence. In December I was diagnosed with stage 3/b bladder cancer. In late January I had open Cystectomy and was in the hospital for 10 days. My MO put my PC

Any advice
Hi all, I guess I’m here for some advice or just to know I’m not alone as I feel like I’m completely alone at the moment and either doctors don’t want to help me, or do want to help, but can’t! Bit of back story . . . I have always had awful menstruation pain, resulting in me being prescribed the

COPD and Radiation for Breast Cancer
I am trying to find information on the potential effects on my existing COPD if I have radiation therapy for breast cancer. I am being treated at a top cancer center in the US and they definitely promote lumpectomy plus radiation over mastectomy. I am almost 70 years old and a widow, and I really don't

Vitamin A,D,E,K deficiency..
After gall bladder surgery my Doctors in India recommended no vitamin supplements . Read somewhere about possible fat soluble Vitamin deficiency after gall bladder removal. Is it safe to take Vitamin D with Vit K2 as MK7 as a supplement ?. Is it true that Vitamin D , if taken alone would cause Calcium
