ILC: Double Mastectomy positive margins complete breast tissue removed
My wife was diagnosed with Invasive Lobular Carcinoma in April. HR/PR positive (95%) Ki67-12%, HER2 1+ Negative. Oncotype test indicated or confirmed IV chemo would not be effect based of her ILC composition. Due to the size of the tumors she was put on Ibrance and Letrozole to help shrink the tumors

No Blood Markers…
I have been diagnosed with non-metastatic Breast Cancer 3 times since 2005 (2 rounds of radiation + tamoxifen and then a bilateral mastectomy in 2016). My final Stage 4 diagnosis came in 2022 with mets in spine, Lungs & lymph nodes. I was surprised at the diagnosis since I have had regular blood tests

An Interesting Dilemma
I saw this story in the Guardian today https://www.theguardian.com/society/2022/nov/07/genetic-tests-could-identify-people-at-risk-of-heart-disease-nhs-study-finds And it got me thinking about genetic testing, which seems to be the future of modern medicine and something that looks likely to be expanded

Underwent the "simple mastectomy" on Nov 1 on the right side. This is my third breast cancer surgery and sixth primary cancer overall. I was so discouraged to have cancer again and did not want the surgery, but it was the only rational option. Already have had so much radiation to the chest (lung cancer

Fluid after mastectomy
Fluid after mastectomy. Hi all. I had my surgery three weeks ago. I have some fluid which the Breast nurse assured me it’s normal. Feels as if I’m growing a new boob at the minute! But what I wondered is what everybody else has experienced? How long should I expect it to last for? I’m drinking lots

Ablation experience
It is now 48 hours since my ablation and I thought that others might like to know something of my experience. In the last 11 months I have had my gall bladder removed, a mastectomy and 2 cardioversions but this was the procedure that I was far most worried about. After 3 cardioversions, I have been in

The other side of surgery and covid!
hi. Had a mastectomy 2 weeks ago today and tested positive for Covid 12 days ago! Covid tests negative but symptoms persist! Surgery went ok - fatigue the key issue. Time should sort that out 🤞 Restless legs mostly ok - taking half a Pramipexole tablet each day! I got half way through weaning myself

What’s next after Piqray?
Hello ladies, I’ve been on Piqray since December of last year - 12/2021 and scans have been stable. My onc said next in line would be Enhertu but with having only one true functioning lung ( my right lung is trapped due to a botched mastectomy and radiation from 2019), I’m nervous about going through

ER+/PR+, HER2-, Stage1B (+sentinel node)
Hi Diagnosed in March 2022 - partial mastectomy and 33 doses/days radiation now on Letrozole. Anyone with similar diagnosis and treatment have any advice on supplements or what to expect? Reading some posts where Letrozole "stopped working". Any information is helpful. Thanks so much and God bless

Mastectomy and Covid
Mastectomy and Covid! I had my mastectomy last Tuesday 20th September. My partner tested positive for Covid on Wednesday the 21st, followed by myself my daughter and my son-in-law. Anyway we are battling through. One issue is I am wearing a pico unit. This is due to be checked and/or changed tomorrow

Update to Here We Go Again
There are 4 tumors, and the onc report says they are Stage II Grade II ER+ PR+ HER2- I hope this is accurate as the last breast cancer was a triple negative encasing a triple positive (hard to treat!) I am still going to Florida for the month of October; surgery is Nov 1. Need to recharge my batteries

Coming off pramipexole but pausing for surgery
I was given a date for my mastectomy of October 4 so I decided to continue my pramipexole reduction until nearer the time. I am down to half a tablet a day, from a full tablet a day. I am going to pause now though as they brought my surgery forward to next week. 😬 eek Overall I am ok. I have had

Surgery date brought forward by two weeks
Surgery date brought forward by two weeks. Mastectomy was booked for October 4, but I’ve just had a call from the surgeon offering me a week today. I’ve accepted it but it’s left me quite shaky, no idea why. Perhaps because I thought I had three more weeks to prepare and I have less than a week. But

Hi They say if you want to hear God laugh, tell him your plans. Well, He is laughing mightily!! When the call came that I have breast cancer for the third time, I was adamant that I wouldn't undergo a mastectomy - unfortunately, the onc surgeon does not think she can do a lumpectomy because of a previous

Hello,I live in Bradenton Florida and go to Moffitt Cancer in Tampa
I once had two(2 )oncologists. l live in Bradenton and due to the drive to Moffitt in Tampa I once had another oncologist here at Florida Cancer. She once gave me a second opinion about immunotherapy which I was hesitant to try (it was new at the time so I didn't try that) She told me to just
