Possible preventative mastectomy
Hi, following treatment for stage 4 ovarian cancer I found out I have the BRCA1 gene. I was tested due to my age at diagnosis and family history of breast cancer. I’m now considering preventative double mastectomy with reconstruction. I’m due to see the surgical team on Friday to discuss my options.

Forgive me...
After my last post, two respondents mentioned this site is meant for this with MBC. I had no idea! I thought it was a support network for all who have been diagnosed with all stages of BC. I am so very sorry if my "pity party" offended those who have it much worse than I. During this journey, I have

Advice on my blood lab results
Meadowsmom: Repost for Responses I had a hemithyroidectomy in October 2017 due to thyroid cancer. I have been religiously followed by doctors for follow up and so far no cancer recurrence. For the first year after surgery medication was not required and I was well. After a year I started to feel unwell

I was so scared of taking Paclitaxol chemo, but it has been ok.
Hello, I had a mastectomy in April this year with additional removal of 6 lymph nodes. One aggregate deposit of .5, so my surgeon sent me to an oncologist for “possible radiotherapy and hormone treatment.” I am Triple Negative grade 3 stage 3. You cannot imagine the shock when she laid out her plans

Anybody really good with blood test diagnostics?
I'll say right off the bat this isn't a P.A. issue (I don't think!), but I didn't know where else to post this and felt that the thyroid community & pernicious anaemia forums have the most expertise with blood tests, since their lives seem to be ruled by them! I have had high Ferritin for over a year
