Invasive Lobular Cancer (ILC)
Hi all, I have just discovered that ILC is lumped into general ductal breast cancer. America research have started to recognise there are huge differences. Treatment in Australia is the same as ducta...

Thanks all.. so proactive consoling not to be Alone in these events..
in NSW, I’ve read an expert radiologist is Dr Mary Richard. I’m not sure if she started the public mammogram screening. I’ve read she now advocates strongly re dense breast tissue even suggesting
that dense breasts are higher risk than genetic inheritance.
Could be, as I I was told by a geneticist that 80% of us belong to an unknown category. I’m in this group. The other 20 % are BRACA 1 &2 group. There are added genetic profiles like CHEK and others
that are part of this group.. But, for we glorious common flowers..
there is little known. The studies into epigenetics and DNA methylation hold hope for us being done thru Peter Mac. Also,
liquid Biopsy.. a blood test for early detection of circulating cancer cells not yet available.. Ratshit that we have to wait for the scientists
for so long! The other interesting area is genomics. Anyone having a tumour removed should now request genomic testing along with
Histology on the tumour. If genomic testing had been available on my first tumour and the second (then available but not offered),
a more accurate assessment of the two tumours would have occurred to determine if they were related. In second cancers
our guidelines seem outdated and it’s near impossible to get a straight conversation from the Oncs.. one said to me.. ‘ you don’t
want everyone to be afraid! What price Truth? I personally can face truth.. we need strong advocacy to challenge and transform .
Many more of our sisters may be prevented from progressing to
advanced stages.. if we unbetweeners have best practice guidelines
perhaps more akin to USA or UK..
I’m a retired common little flower with a compulsion to get better care
than my grandmother and my mother... All strength to us all to
progress prevention.
