Breast Cancer at 28

Hi, I was diagnosed in July - three weeks after turning 28 with HER2+, invasive ductal breast cancer. I am currently on number 4 of my chemo treatment and had a consultation during the week regarding surgery and the fact that my initial diagnosis of a lumpectomy has now been changed to a mastectomy with possibility of it being double mastectomy- which will be my decision. 
 

I don't really know what advice/information/support I am looking for but I find it very difficult meeting many people with my kind of cancer and treatment especially at my age. 
 

I really would just like to hear from anyone in a similar situation to any part of my cancer journey. 
 

Thank you

  • I had 4 lots of every 3 weeks and then moved to weekly for 12. I feel ok about it I haven't spoken to my surgeon yet that will be sometime in November once I've finished my chemo. Had my follow up CT scan though which showed some shrinkage and no signs of it anywhere else so hopefully it's all heading in the right direction x
