PET scan for lesion
Has anyone had a PET scan for bone lesions? I had a CT and then MRI in preparation for my DEIP flap reconstruction 2 years post mastectomy. They found a "lesion" on my L2 vertebrate. I'm trying not to worry but it's hard not to x

delayed reconstruction options
I had a single mastectomy at the end of May and wasn't offered a reconstruction at the time as it was thought that I would need radiotherapy. The tumors were found to be very small and low grade so I haven't needed any chemo or radiotherapy (just Tamoxifen). I have an appointment next week to meet

Expander reconstruction
Hi all. After chemo, I had a mastectomy and an expander reconstruction in Feb this year, followed by 3 weeks of radiotherapy. So now, 6 months later, my reconstruction is still rock hard. The skin around it is getting softer but, is this how it will always be, so hard?? I haven't had it expanded anymore

BrCA Positive and New to This...
Hi there. I've recently been diagnosed with the BrCA gene (for those who are unsure, Angeline Jolie had this. In a nutshell, I will most likely have cancer in my lifetime occurring in my breasts/ovaries, and so measures such as mastectomy and oophorectomy are very common). IVF has been recommended to

Negative breast cancer
I read a lot of the blogs on here. My condition was very different. I had lung cancer in my right breast! Very few cases all over the world (30 in all?). It was small cell. I was diagnosed in June 2015 just after having a hysterectomy in the May! First I was told a mastectomy and then the oncologist

End of treatment
After being diagnosed in Nov 2015, I've been through chemo for 6 months, a mastectomy with a free tram reconstruction, delayed healing, 25 sessions of radiotherapy and now I have just two more sessions left. It'll all end on Tuesday next. I'll be on tamoxifin for 5 years, though. Somehow I'm unable to
