Recurring breast cancer
Hi everyone
Well it's been a while - 18 months following diagnosis grade 3 aggressive followed by a left mastectomy and 18 weeks of grueling chemo.... The week of my oncologist appointment I fount a tiny lump on the same side 2.5cm above the scar and central...at first we were going to leave it a month but then we changed our minds...2 days later a biopsy....with the radiologist and doctor all seemed sure it was a cyst.
Well, got the news last Friday that cancer cells were present so it's off for another full body CT tomorrow (only had one 6mths ago which was all clear) before heading to the surgeon on Wednesday ....
What happens now?
More surgery?
More chemo?

- jennywrenMemberThanks Curly Sue, it's not fair, but what can we do other than keep fighting. I don't think I can have radiotherapy again on the same area so not sure what they will do. Guess I will find out tomorrow. Did you have scans as well? I had to have a CT scan and am having a bone scan tomorrow even though I had these in April as part of the clinical trials I was doing. Don't really want more chemo...who does? But am ready for it if that's what is required. Good luck to you too, keep in touch xSign in to react to this post
