Meet others with less common forms of breast cancer, such as Medullary carcinoma, Mucinous carcinoma (colloid carcinoma), Papillary carcinoma, Cribriform carcinoma, Tubular carcinoma, Metaplastic tumors, Paget's disease, Phyllodes tumor, Adenoid cystic carcinomas and Angiosarcoma.
On April 21st I had a core biopsy and today I was told that I have mucinous carcinoma of the breast. When I investigated on this website, the information given was that this is a rare type of cancer, about 2-3% of all breast cancers and usually occurs in post-menopausal women over the age of 60. I am neither. I am 51 years…
Hello everyone, My lumpectomy and sentinal node biopsy pathology report came back. It was a 1.8cm high grade mucinous carcinoma. Tumor borders were clear but there was additional DCIS 0.5mm from the border. Nodes were negative. This was found when I just finished breastfeeding. I'm 40 and all I see is information on this…
I have had breast cancer and also have a friend with a rarer case that I can't find a ton of information on. Does anybody know how Paget's disease influences a prognosis? Specifically paget's with an ILC invasive component? I can find some info on it with IDC but nothing with ILC.
This is my first time to ever post on a blog like this. Honestly, the fact that I am actually doing so scares the hell out of me. I'm hoping to get some clarity on Paget's Disease. The information I have found is minimal, my doctors office doesn't seem to have much experience and the blog comments are old, but I am hopeful…
My partner was diagnosed with CUP that is presenting as HER 2+ metastatic breast cancer. He received radiation treatment for a brain tumor and now is experiencing radiation necrosis. Boswellia has been prescribed. We are looking for some information about using this supplement. Thank you.
Hello all…. I've asked this question of my primary care, gyno, and breast surgeon and have yet to get what I feel is an informed answer, which is why I'm coming here! I was diagnosed with encapsulated papillary carcinoma in 2017 (ER+ HER 2-) and after multiple opinions, opted for a BMX. Although I've needed follow-up…
Hi everyone, I'm a 22-year-old dealing with a recent diagnosis of a borderline phyllodes tumor, and I could use some guidance and support. On 11/10, I noticed a tumor, leading to a biopsy on 11/14. The biopsy results were inconclusive, and a lumpectomy on 12/6 revealed a borderline phyllodes tumor with negative margins.…
I have been diagnosed with angisarcoma. Caught very early and removed from breast. Actually double mastectomy. Stage 1. Now getting second opinion on treatment. It is very very rare. Anyone out there with it?
Anyone else in this same boat? Would love input or sharing your experience. Feeling a little alone in this boat!
Anyone out there also diagnosed with tubular carcinoma? I know it is a rare kind, rarely spreads, is highly estrogen positive and has a good prognosis. If you have tubular carcinoma, I am wondering about your treatment. I had lumpectomy, radiation, and tamoxifen. I am curious to know if all of this treatment is necessary…
