Just diagnosed with secondary breast cancer in liver

Hi I had breast cancer in 2020 and went through chemo radio and surgery but despite this it has returned in my liver. Just had a pet scan and waiting for results and treatment plan. Not sleeping well at night due to steroids. Would be nice to chat to some others who understand 

  • Hello Hawaiijulia

    I'm sorry to hear about the news that has brought you to find the Cancer Chat forum. It's understandable that this may be an anxious time for you as you wait to hear about your scan results and the potential next treatment steps. Hopefully, you won't have to wait too long before you have some news. 

    We know that for many people this period of waiting and uncertainty can be difficult and the fact that you're struggling to sleep due to the steroids is, I'm sure, not helping at the moment. 

    Hopefully, you'll be able to connect with other forum members who are living with a secondary cancer diagnosis soon and share your experiences with each other. In the meantime, if it would help to chat things through with one of our nurses you're most welcome to give them a call. I know they will be happy to listen and offer any advice, information and support they can. They're available Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm on 0808 800 4040. 

    Do keep in touch and let us know when you have some more news. 

    Sending my best wishes,
