27 year old lobular carcinoma
Hi there, I’m 27 and based in Brisbane just now. 12 days ago I was diagnosed with invasive lobular carcinoma. I don’t yet know lymph involvement but am guessing it’s likely (nothing showed on USS or palpable however.) My surgeon has recommended a full lymph clearance. Is there anyone else out there this young with lobular? My biggest fear is leaving my husband behind without any children, what if my illness causes him to miss his chance of having kids with someone else one day? Unfortunately I’m a nurse so know a bit too much about what I’m about to go through. I have a mastectomy in 3 days and axillary clearance. Trying to remain positive. At what point did you ladies meet your oncologist? I’m not meeting them until next week when the final pathology/sizing etc is back after surgery and they’ve had an MDT to decide my treatment plan. Is this normal? I’m public.
Fertility post chemo
hi everyone i hope everyone is kicking butt on their journey. i am 30 and was diagnosed 3 months ago with TN. I have a 14 month old son and didn't have time to freeze any eggs before chemo started. My question is, has anyone here had a baby post treatment or got an idea of what their fertility was? i would love to think I can have a second baby but I am very lucky to have my little boy already. I have been having my period and and I have also still been ovulating through chemo. Has this happened to anyone else? Thanks in advance! ☺️
