Just had the letter that the surgeon sent doctor.....I had a mucinous carcinoma which was ER + PR+ and HER 2 neg ( but for some reason it needs retest)  now what all this actually means I have no idea but when you read it in black and white it all sounds so real and scary.......

Also just want to say what a lovely group of ladies you are....thank you all for being here....xxxx

Ooh Marlyn, that’s the same diagnosis as me! What are they retesting though? I’ve heard they check to make sure it’s pure mucinous rather than mixed with DCIS...

Hello mrsfingers, they said they were retesting the HER 2 - as it can sometimes change? Apparently if it changes from neg to pos it will mean chemo...so of course I am praying for it not to change. The letter also said there wasn't DCIS....

what treatment did you end up getting? Xxx

Just read your bio....you were strongly positive? How did you get on with chemo....what meds you on ? Xxx

Hey ladies - been snowing down here in Kent. So glad I'm not working or commuting as trains will be buggered. This country makes me laugh as coming back from Canada with the amount of snow and freezing icy weather they carry on like normal. It really is cold tonight.  

Had some pretty devastating news - hubby's brother who had cancer and has been fighting it well now has brain tumour. It has spread and prognosis isn't good.  Not a great start to the year. His was really far gone and in the thyroid gland, lung and back when first diagnosed so it is what it is and from day one were told it wouldn't be cured. He was in denial and I could see that. Sigh....it is what it is.

We all have to keep fighting no matter what stage we are diagnosed at and yes cancer does suck but live, love and laugh to the highest degree every single day. Keep soldiering on ladies - you got this.

Keep warm and keep well.x
