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

Anyone BRCA opted for an elective mastectomy?
I have the dreaded appointment to discuss a potential double mastectomy on Thursday. (I'm BRCA2 and just reached 5 years with no recurrence so far.) I'm having a massive wobble I think caused by a c*ckup that now means any private medical recourse to PARP inhibitors is gone forever - A different story

Recurrent DCIS
Hi all I had a lumpectomy and radiotherapy about eight years ago to deal with ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) it has now recurred, what an absolute pain. I’ve had a mammogram and ultrasound and the radiologist thinks I will need surgery. I won’t know for sure until next Wednesday. But in my experience

CLL & Mastectomy / Implants
I'm wondering if anyone here with CLL/SLL has undergone a breast reduction or mastectomy since diagnosis. If so, were you on treatment or WW at time of surgery? If you were on treatment, did you have to stop for surgery? How was your healing? If you had a mastectomy, did you get implants after

New primary Breast Cancer! Grade three lobular triple negative! Unrelated to my MBC. Time frame for surgery?
I was diagnosed with de novo MBC in November 2018 and no lump was found. So started on Ibrance and Letrozole as my first line of treatment. I recently felt a large lump in my breast appear almost overnight and mentioned it at my oncology appointment a few weeks later. I was then booked in for a biopsy

Third episode of persistent AF in 6 months
I had a successful cardioversion on Christmas eve and then another one just 4 weeks ago. Gutted because I went into persistent AF again yesterday. I take Edoxaban and have tried to take Flecainide but it makes me dizzy and very sick. I tried the "pill in pocket " yesterday but it did not work.

Pacemaker risky
I wonder if anyone else out there has had a double mastectomy? I qualify for a pacemaker (ef 38) but my Cardiologist thinks it’s a bit dodgy as I have no lymph glands under my arms now. The risk is infection. Since I haven’t seen my Cardiologist for 3 years because of Covid I suppose he can’t be too

Tamoxifen - side effects
Hi, I had a single mastectomy in Feb 2022. I started Tamoxifen about 17 days ago. So far hot sweats. Most people I speak to don't have many side effects. i have lots of visits to the loo but no major diarrhoea. I wondered how others have got on and if and when side effects settled. I have IBS and
