New to this community but not to breast cancer...
Hi everyone my name is Mona. I am new to this community but not to breast cancer. My first go round was in 2000 when I was diagnosed with a stage 2 DCIS triple negative cancer. After a lumpectomy (showing no node involvement), chemo and radiation I was diagnosed again on February 15, 2017 with stage

Leaking lymphorrhea
My MLD practitioner says that the leaking patch in breast which is engorged with lymph is lymphorrhea. I am having to change dressings on the area several times a day. 7 months after mastectomy and reconstruction, surgeons and doctors seem to have no cures or even ideas. Does anyone share this problem

Breast mastectomy and reconstruction
Hi. I’m new here though been diagnosed since 2012. I had a recent mastectomy and breast reconstruction using tummy tissue. Unfortunately my reconstruction failed and had to be removed a few days later due to issues with blood supply. Anyone else with lupus have a similar experience?

Hi, I'm Suzanne
I had a single mastectomy in January of 2015. Nothing in the lympthnodes, so was able to proceed with reconstruction. I have been taking Anastrazole since and will be for another 2 and 1/2 years. I want to connect with others on this med to compare side effects.

Help - is this right?
Hi all, I have read yesterday's comments about DEXA scans and taking AA with interest - and concern. After initial diagnosis and getting going on meds (Pred only) my GP said she didn't need to see me until I had reduced to 5mg. As time went on it was clear that this wouldn't happen in a rush and I asked

Hi guys, I made a previous post about a month ago about how my anxiety has come back for the first time in two years and I do not want to go on pharmaceutical anti-depressants again.

UV lamp for Osteoporosis?
Hi, I’ve just started taking alendronic acid after being diagnosed with OP. I have been taking Adcal for years for osteopenia but fell whilst cycling fracturing both wrists hence a dexa & the resultant diagnosis. Does anyone have any experience of using a UV lamp?

I am new here and started hormone therapy
I am 59 years old and had my prostate (PSA) test done in the fall of 2016. It came back at 40, after a biopsy found the Gleason score to be 4 + 3 (7). I had a Prostectomy at the end of May 2017. The surgeon was sure it was contained and that they got all the cancer out. After healing up for 7 weeks
