Just diagnosed, in treatment, or finished treatment for IDC.
Less than 48 hours ago I received my biopsy report and basically the only word on it that I understood was Carcinoma. The nurse advocate called a bit later and I have little recollection of anything she said concerning the biopsy. I was able to agree to get a surgical consult, call my primary for a referral and schedule an…
Well, I got the call today. IDC in left breast, 10mm. Waiting to hear back about bio markers and will meet with oncology team next week. I’m alternating between panic and numbness. I would like to connect with others like me so I don’t feel quite so alone.

When looking up anything…
Hello, I am hoping to connect with people who might have a similar situation to mine, although I think (?) my situation might be on the rare side. Six years ago I was diagnosed with Stage 1B IDC. I am BRCA2. I did a double mastectomy with reconstruction (implants) and was told chemo/radiation not needed since my tumor was…
Hello I would like to see if anyone else has experienced this. I have invasive ductal carcinoma stage 2 ER+ PR+ HER2- my tumor was 18mm at the 8 O’clock position left breast. I had a lumpectomy 2 weeks ago. The margins were considered negative but the pathology report states the lateral margin was close. The distance from…
Hello members. If anyone has been through this cancer let me know what is gong on? I am confused with surgeon saying remove the whole breast (mastectomy) or lumpectomy with chemo. I can not decide.
