How is tamoxifen ? Side effect ??

Hello everyone, my name is Susan. Back in Feb of 2009 I was diagnosed with HER2+ Stage 3A breast cancer. I had a total left side mastectomy with lymph nodes removed under arm pit. I also had reconstructive surgery where they inserted an expander for 9mths. I had chemo and radiation. The expander was uncomfortable and after 9mths they put the prostheses in and unfortunately it failed and incision opened. I was on Herceptin for 1 yr. I still alive and kickin!

I need to add that after each chemo treatment, I would go back the next day for a Neulasta shot. This keeps you from getting sick by keep your white blood cells elevated. I worked full time during all this. I also took care of my husband who was a stroke survivor. God gave the strength I needed to handle all this. When I look back on these years I just keep saying God thank you for all you've done for me. Stay strong ladies. Your not alone!!🙏❤

Diagnose with stage 1A ..HER2....Lumpectomy, 6 TCH chemo tx, 22 radiation treatments. about 6weeks after my last chemo EVERYTHING returned to normal including my hair. Now 9 years later no evidence of breast cancer on my CA 27.29 blood test. My oncologist said YOU ARE CURED !!!!

And this is not a joke, my oncologist indeed suggested on me to remove my other breast, my ovaries and my womb too - just in case!

Look into the DIEP Flap surgery versus implants.

I am 67. I have heard horrible things about hormone therapy. Some women report joint pain so severe they can't stay in one position for 20 minutes, and this goes on for up to 10 years. If they try to quit the therapy, doctors put them on different meds that are no better. At my age, that would mean I would be in debilitating pain for the rest of my life. If I were younger or had a family, I would feel differently. But I don't care to make my life horrible simply to prolong it. I MIGHT do chemo if I can do it orally, but I doubt I will even try hormone therapy.

How does a woman know if there is a risk of recurrence with DCIS (stage 0) after a bilateral mastectomy when there is no family history of breast cancer?

My mother is sick with breast cancer, and I cannot afford the treatment expenses. I was also sick before her with social phobia and depression, and my psychological condition became difficult to the stage of thinking about suicide. I endured my illness for 15 years, but the mother came all my life in the world 😭, because she sacrificed for me from a young age. My father died in 1994, and she did not get married for me, even if she was young. We live in North Africa, with very severe difficulties, with difficult living and high prices. I feel that I am close to madness. I see my mother in front of me and I cannot do anything for her as I did. I hope To find a kind heart ❤ here,

Jayz Katinapi not sure how many are out there, but I’m with you- not good with pills. I was diagnosed same as you, stage 3 hormone positive breast cancer. Just got my drain tubes out today. Still recovering. Will start 6 weeks of radiation soon. I wish you the best with all your treatments during your journey.

My cancer is ER+, PR+, HER2- 8.5 cm and 3.5 cm invasive lobular carcinoma of the left breast. After 3 months taking Lexotrole, had a bilateral mastectomy with 16 lymph nodes removed due to positive nodes in breast and under the armpit. Had expanders and having those removed and implants put in in 5 weeks🤗. Did 8 weeks of radiation 6 weeks after mastectomy. Still on Lexotrole. So my risk of reoccurrence is high based on size of tumor and lymph node involvement but I am HER2- so that’s good news. Anyone HER2- reading this? I’m wondering about reoccurrence chances... it’s like I’m waiting for the other shoe to hit the ground...

At age 53 I had breast cancer in 2015. ER+,PR+, HER2-. Less than 1 cm in size. Stage 1. No lymph node involvement. Im doing great, no problems. I took the hormone lowering pills for about a year-and-a-half until I was no longer able to take them from severe side effects. I chose a double-mastectomy even though I only had cancer in the left breast. That was my choice so that I did not have to have any radiation or chemo. Mine was caught early an a routine mammogram.

I have stage 1 HER2+. I have 3 kids. Most days I’m positive. My insurance won’t pay for a second pet scan, my chemotherapy is finished I just get herceptin and perjeta every 21 days.I’m scared guys😭 I see the breast surgeon on 9/20, I will have a double mastectomy soon

@lufacarbon1260

Жыл бұрын

That is my point today! Why poison my body? I refuse the Chemo, radiation and the pill. They did mastectomy on my right breast in January, then pet-scam on May showing noting on my body, then at the end of July I notice a little thing growing by the mastectomy incision, the surgeon remove that and came to be cancer. So now I have about 4 more to be remove in about a week from now. Plus I have kidney transplant since 2006, the kidney is failing but still working, if I do any toxic treatment my kidney will stop right a way. So, I decide no to toxic western medicine because of the kidney, now I’m doing acupuncture combine with Japanese technique, plus Ayurveda therapy, raw plant base diet, no sugars or carbs.

My oncologist suggested chemo then targeted then mastectomy then targeted. Me: WT..?? If the chemo and targeted do their job then why would I need mastectomy? If they don't then why offering them and suffering me? Head straight to mastectomy! My oncologist: No. My sergeon: No, accept it all or leave it all. Me: left it all.

This is highly suggestive of malignancy. Tissue correlation is suggested. Other benign type of calcifications are seen bilaterally. Skin line and nipples are unremarkable.
