I've had a
lumpectomy
and am in the 4th week of radiation treatment. The hardest thing for me right now is, despite the kindness and professionalism of the staff, all of the preparation/simulation/treatment for the radiation makes me feel awful.

I was diagnosed with grade 3 breast cancer on 1 March and had a wired local excision (
lumpectomy
) and 25 lymph nodes removed on 23rd March; 5 had cancer in. My surgeon is confident they have got everything but I'm now facing chemo, hormone and radiotherapy in the months to come.

My inspiration
Considering how treatments have developed since then too, at that time she only had a
lumpectomy
and 25 rounds of radiotherapy, no tablets to treat her afterwards either, the incredible thing was she had only been working as a nurse on an oncology ward 3 months when she found a lump, she insisted on

Breast Cancer and OCD
Hi I am new to the site, three and half years ago I had Bi - Lateral Breast Cancer, I had
lumpectomy
, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, Herceptin and Letrozole. Since then I have suffered from OCD really bad and I have suffered from OCD before that, but it's very difficult now to manage.

Hi, new to site
I was diagnosed August 2013,
lumpectomy
, mastectomy, chemo and then rads. Had reconstruction last June and second stage of recon last week. Suddenly it seems to have hit me that this may not be it - generally really positive so wondered if anyone else feels this way?

rhythm disturbance after radiotherapy
I have recently had a
lumpectomy
for breast cancer and 15 days treatment of radiotherapy, Everything went well apart from many ectopics, and some days low blood pressure in the mornings (90) making me feel a bit faint. After a drink and something salty felt better. Am I on the right drug.

MTHFR gene mutation
I was diagnosed with dcis then found lcis in the pathology slice after
lumpectomy
. I have not started any treatment yet and see oncologist in 2 weeks. Have alot of questions. My family dr did a blood test for preop. It came back with a gene mutation call MTHFR C677T from both parents.

Some clarification needed
They have advised 6- rounds of neo-adjuvant chemotherapy followed by surgery (not sure whether
Lumpectomy
or mastectomy) and radiation therapy post-surgery. I was not present when my parents visited the doc; so not sure whether the doc said anything about adjuvant chemotherapy or not.

Breast cancer advice
My sister has recently been diagnosed with breast cancer and is currently waiting for a
lumpectomy
. She has a dull ache in her shoulder - she has had this when the doctor initially touched the lump/when she had the needle biopsies and also on and off since mammogram.

Personalised Breast cancer care.
Today's approach prefers to target just the tumour, called a
lumpectomy
. Not only are better drugs available, but doctors also have a much better understanding of disease variations between patients, requiring different therapies.

I hope you don't mind if I summarise my cancer history, starting with breast cancer (
lumpectomy
+ radiotherapy) in 1985, mastectomy in 2006, and removal of a chest nodule in 2009. Then the real whammy: diagnosis of ovarian (or peritoneal?) cancer in July 2013.
