Hi Posi so sorry you’ve received a diagnosis on the one hand, but great to have picked it up.  My type (ILC) was a bit different to yours (DCIS) but do have any information about the subtypes and whether yours is hormone receptive and/or HER2 positive? I was HER positive and hormone positive, which shaped the type of treatment, the drugs used and the duration of my overall treatment phases.

    Hi Tri - Thanks for your post!  How are you going - have you had treatment for the ILC yet?  My report says ER and PR are negative in high grade DCIS but HER2 shows 3+ grade .  I have not met the Dr yet to discuss treatment so am busy learning as much as I can.   Hope its all going well for you!
