Recently diagnosed with breast cancer

I recently had a call back from my recent mammogram, which unfortunately following biopsy has been diagnosed as breast cancer caused through hormone estrogen!  Now awaiting treatment planning meeting following an MRI scan which I had at the weekend.

is there anyone out there who has also been diagnosed recently, just for a shout out and possibly work together through this x

  • Hi Kaz I was diagnosed last week following mammogram call back. I was a bit blase when they did first biopsy. On results day that’s when the metaphorical slap on face happened with diagnosis. Second painful biopsy and now waiting next appointment. They said surgery, 5 day radiotherapy and then years of medication. I’m just worried they’re wrong and it’s worse than they said. Happy to message you. Keep going.

  • Hey,

    thanks for replying, still trying to get my head round it all.  Stay positive and probably a bit like me over thinking everything and frightening the life out of myself.

    i have another biopsy tomorrow as MRI showed another lump but different from the first lump they found.  But all being well I will have surgery beginning of Dec, just got to wait for results of tomorrows biopsy and I have an appt with consultant again on 27th Nov.

    everyone says stay positive and strong and that is what we must done.  You have got this and all will be well.
