Ductal Carcinoma GRADE 2

Morning All

I have just been diagnosed with Ductual Carcinoma grade 2 in breast and was just seeing if anyone has been through this and can give any advise please.

I have been told a Lumpectomy, Radiotherapy then Hormone tablets

Many Thanks

  • Hi Hun. I'm newly diagnosed with IDC invasive Ductal carcinoma. And am having a lumpectomy on 28th this month, followed by radiotherapy and hormone therapy. As long as when they do operation and everything is tested to check for more cancer. 

    If not clear more surgery. So we sound as if we have similar diagnosis.. happy to Chat if you need it. Sending hugs 

  • Hi,

    Thanks so much for your message.  Yes it sounds very similar diagnosis.   Just going to see consultant now to get a date.x

  • Hi sweetie. Good luck and let us know how you get on. Always here to help. Hugs 

  • I am feeling a bit down tonight after seeing consultant.  I thought I had my plan as results for HER2 neg IDC were - lumpectomy, Radiotherapy and Hormone tablets now he mentioning it could be chemo - have to wait to do op and lymph node check -even though on MRI scan these were OK. Have to wait for call now for the date of OP xx

    I was also told this with her2 negative but I didn't have it they just mention it to prepare you incase however I had a meltdown at that point like you .

    my scans were clear for lump nodes but after my operation biopsy of sentil nodes whilst under anasestic  there was a trace in one when my results came back I was in total shock was told they looked clear  , so I had a second operstion removal Of 30 lymph nodes these came back all clear I still didn't require chemo I had the oncotyoe DX test which for me saved me from chemo and saved my mental health 

    because it's mentioned it don't mean that you will have it

  • Thanks for quick reply Lara. I think the fact it was mentioned is what got to me -thought I had the plan and that was it but i suppose I have to get used to the fact it doesnt work like that and its going to be more testing and waiting for more results thx so much for reply xx

  • Ah bless you. So hard when you think things are in place and then it all changes. Unfortunately That's BC and it's curve balls again.

    I'll keep my fingers for you. It's a pain but it's better to get the right plan that's gonna be best for you. Xx
