Pelvis and back MRI this week
Hi everyone. I am three years and three months out from a bilateral mastectomy. I had a 6 cm tumor and 9 positive lymph nodes. I was ER+, PR+, HER2-. I had 16 rounds of chemo and 34 rounds of radiation. I took tamoxifen for a year then switched to anastrozole. I have been having pain in my lower left back for a few months.…

Help, new lump.
Ok. I felt what I believe to be a lump in my breast. I never felt my last tumor, so I'm not sure what I'm feeling. My breast feels like it's got long chords or tubes going through it and it felt like a hard knot lodged in the middle. Is that what it feels like or just a normal change? Also, some days it is easier to find.…

A few months later I was dx with Breast Cancer and quickly forgot about my eye. I was getting floaters in my right eye in 2015 but…

Rising Ca 27.29 but NED
I’m so frustrated. My 5 year anniversary of my surgery etc is next week. Despite that I have been battling other issues, massive weight loss, biliary issues and my ca 27.29 is rising, in fact it’s higher now than it was in 2017 before surgery/chemo/rads etc. I’ve had 5 Cat scans in 13 months. I’ve had an…

Lung mets
I haven’t been on here in years, but I am the only person so far who knows about my lung CT results, so I need to shout into the void so I don’t feel alone. Breast cancer back in 2006. Stage I. When my oncologist cut me loose after 5 years she told me I am “basically cured.” A year ago I got a CT to check calcium in heart…

ER/PR+ recur as another type?
I feel like this is such a dumb question, if so sorry. I was diagnosed with DCIS er/pr+ back in October. In November found out I also had the BRCA2 mutation. Just last week had a prophylactic dmx with diep reconstruction. Pathology came back clear but the nerves remain about reccurance. Since my last diagnosis was er/pr+…
