Phyllodes Tumor - Anyone else out there?

Hi Ange,

How are you? Like you, I was recently diagnosed with a phyllodes tumor. I had it removed last week and saw my specialist/surgeon today for my post-op review. All is good, and my results are benign, thankfully! :)

For me, I've been developing fibroadenomas for 14 years now. I've been having my yearly appointments, scans and biopsies, where required. After 4 operations and the removal of 9 lumps, it is still scary, particularly because my grandmother and many aunties have passed away from breast cancer. 

I go back to see my specialist in 2 months.

Please feel free to contact me if you need someone to talk to. 

All the best,

Michelle :) xo
