Due to family history, genetics, or other factors.
Can we start a thread on ADH (known as atypical ductal hyperplasia)? There may be one already existing, but without a lot of hunting around, it's not easy to locate and may not be recent. I'm 51 and have (had) no risk for BC other than being a female - non smoker, no immediate BC in my family, I'm fit, I exercise, eat…
Hi everyone I’m new here.. happy to find a group that I can discuss my concerns with cause Reddit has some mean girls on there haha. Long story short I’m 35F with family history of breast cancer.25% risk score. My mom passed away from TNBC she was diagnosed at 47. My mom’s aunt as well & my moms grandma POSSIBLY. I did…
my mom's genetic testing for her breast cancer was positive for the Chek 2 gene mutation. We were told this is a rare mutation, but a high risk one. I was tested a week ago and awaiting my results. Anyone out there like us???? Would love to hear how you navigated this or any info you may have.
Just a thought… I was watching today a youtube medical channel (Dr. John Campbell) and saw scientists interviewed coming up with evidence that the Covid boosters were extremely dangerous and the statistics of cancers are off the charts because of the spike protein vac. I myself was diagnosed triple negative 5 months after…
When I have looked online at the forums here and on other websites, I'm frequently seeing people who mention being high risk because they have a lifetime calculated risk somewhere between 20% and 45%. I'm not seeing anyone mentioning a risk higher than that. I have a Tyrer-Cuzick model 73.2% calculated lifetime risk. I…
So my story has been long and drawn out and I just dont know what to think or do. 2 years ago, found a lump. Dx mammo/us determine "mildly irregular anechoic cyst". Lump never leaves. No follow up other than annual well womens visit. 7 months ago, nipple discharge near lump. Go see OBGYN and he blows it off as hormonal and…
Hi I'm Dani and I'm new here. I've never posted on a forum before so I guess this really feels like a last resort for me. I've had obsessive thoughts about getting breast cancer ever since I learnt of my alarming family history 5 years ago. I am currently 25 and after being in and out of therapy over this I don't want it…
When I was first diagnosed with ADH 2 years ago my surgeon mentioned prophylactic mastectomies and I thought he was very extreme for bringing it up. Now I just finished my second surgical excision for ADH (pathology showed LCIS). I'm starting to wonder what happens next- I can't be having surgery every 2 years! I think my…
39/f here. high lifetime risk @ 35.8%. Also my career is in radiology, so I understand the lingo, but just not such differing results. had breast MRI to supplement a negative annual screening mammo. results were 4mm focus of enhancement WITH washout kinetics. which is highly suggestive of malignancy. 2 weeks later i get…
Hello, my daughter had a mammogram and ultrasound, everything was ok. She is 44 years old. this is the first time she had breast cancer risk determined and it is 22%. Because i had a few years ago breast cancer. We are confused now. Should she every year have 3 tests done: mammo, ultrasound and MRI. It seems too many tests…
