Stef : I have had the worst cold & cough I think ever in the last month. No sh*# - it has lasted three weeks and in the last few days I lost my voice. I just finally saw my primary doc yesterday, did chest x-ray because of possible pneumonia, and she put me on an antibiotic just to clear this up. I am getting used to waiting more than a week or so to panic these days!

I am waiting for my results I get them tomorrow. The radiologist said he was thinking stage three. I'm so afraid I'm going to die. My tumor is large and ulcerating

so grateful for you posting Jenni . Just a thought I have a friend' that loves to tell me if other people have been diagnosed with secondary BC or something similar . It is not in my nature to confront her with it but it does disturb me and makes me feel worried . Any thoughts?

del - for me there always seems to be a low level background concern about 'c' visiting my home again ... probably kept alive by my family's history (seems like someone gets some kind of cancer every few years and it is persistent thoughout three generations) ... but i understand what you are saying ... wishing you the best of luck - hang in there !!

I have been a member of this site for a long time, but never posted. When I was down, I would search for people with similar markers as mine and read about their stories and survival to give me inspiration and strength. I promised myself that I would post something if I was lucky enough to make it to my 5 year anniversary. So.....here I am! Just had my 5 year anniversary and looking forward to posting again in 5 years. Thank you all for sharing your stories and providing advice over the years. Reading this forum has me helped tremendously.
UPDATE: It is now 10 years!!!!! Wow time flies! Thank you all for sharing your inspirational stories and your support along the way. I hope that the new members of BC community find some encouragement in seeing that there are many of us surviving and thriving! Love to all.

Thank you for posting your milestone, I needed to see this. Having 11/18 positive nodes scares the hell out of me but to see so many at the 5-10 year mark gives me soooo much hope! Bless you!

Hi. I am new here but am an almost 10 year survivor of locally advanced lobular breast cancer. My stats are below.
Congratulations to all of you who have hit big milestones. I am so happy to find a forum just for stage 3 sisters.

Notagaintoo and Victoriasecret, thank you for posting your milestones. It truly gives hope!
Can I ask how bc changed your lifestyle? I've been trying to make changes to my diet, (eliminate sugar, white flour, deli and red meats and diary), however I don't have enough will power😒 and after being "good" for a day or two, I end up eating whatever I put my hands on, especially since I returned to my full time job in March.
Any suggestions ?
