Recently diagnosed with IDC. Early stages and lumpectomy with radiation is an option. Chemo is still up in the air. I have extremely fibrous, lumpy dense breasts and have, along with plastics and breat surgeon considered bilateral mastectomies to reduce the stress and testing every time a new lump forms. I'm here to weigh…
Hello all newly diagnosed. Ductal Carcinoma 2 cm Pos Hrz, 4 cm Neg Hrz. Cancer cells in one lymph node. I am awaiting my Onocology appt. this Thursday. I have such a hard time sleeping, not lots of support since I am a single woman and family…no. So it is very treatable which is good but the thought of getting a masectomy…
I'm just wondering how everyone copes with this diagnosis and the uncertainty of it? I am 39 years old with a 2 year old daughter and was diagnosed with stage 2 IDC 7 months ago, and I just can't seem to cope with the fear of not being around for my daughter. My oncotype score says I have a 25 percent chance of distant…
I have dense breasts and have kept up with annual Mammos. Last month, I had a mammo, diagnostic mammo, ultrasound, and stereotactic biopsy. Results came back as DCIS Grade 2. I just had a breast MRI and it's showing another area in the same breast (no suspicion of malignancy in the right) so they want an MRI-guided biopsy…

Freaking out. What stage will I be in? I am worried it has spread everywhere! Is there hope? I have not received the complete biopsy, so I don't know the details. My primary doctor just told me last friday that the preliminary result is that it is very aggressive and high grade. I am 40yo with 8 and 6 year olds. Have not…
I was diagnosed Aug 1,2024. Finally got surgery date of Nov 6, no other treatments yet but in the meantime I am growing increasingly fatigued by the day. It’s so bad that when I do get a good nights sleep it makes no difference. Has anyone else had intense fatigue before treatment?
Hi all, I was given the diagnosis last Friday (invasive ductal carcinoma - about 1 cm in size) and I meet with a surgeon on Thursday. I just received my full pathology report and I was hoping to get a better understanding of staging to guide my questions during my appointment. Can any of you determine my stage from this…
