A little over a week ago I went to my breast surgeon to have a lump checked under my arm. Same side as my previous cancer 7 years ago. After ultrasound and immediate biopsy it came back positive for IDC. ER+ PR- Her2 undetermined. The grade is 3 though which is why I am so nervous. I have a CT scan of chest abdomen and pelvis and a bone scan tomorrow morning. So scared that it might have already spread somewhere.

    Hi. It’s been one hell of a day. Had tests done and no metastasis found. So I guess best case scenario. Now on to fighting this. I am getting a port next week and starting chemo the week after. Can’t believe I’m doing this again. Thanks for asking!
