diagnosed today with breast cancer

hi everyone so I posted last week about finding a lump and my doctor doing a biopsy, I got my results today and I've been diagnosed with stage 1 invasive ductal caricoma ( I think that's what its called) I'm absolute devastated. my consultant says he was also shocked because of my age (32) and no breast cancer runs in my family. he said that it grows from my hormone but is still awaiting the hers2 test to come back. I'm waiting for a MRI scan within a week he said. and my nurse will call me tomorrow to have a chat I wasnt really listening after he said it was cancer luckily my mum and sister were there with me I'm so confused upset and scared all at the same time x

  • Hi hun,

    Different situation on my end but i can kinda relate. My mum has just been diagnosed with cancer (thyroid), her diagnosis too completely out of the blue and again doesnt run in our family either and shes not in the stereotypical age bracket. Its frankly just a horrible word, the whole world feels different can you relate to that? Keep your chin up lovely, we are all here on this forum to offer support and although everyones situation is different, i think everyone on here "gets it". For me, im at the stage where im starting to feel angry that everyone else is carrying on with their lives (its probably a selfish way for me to feel, but i cant help it!) All the best and keep your chin up xx

  • hi I'm so sorry about your mums diagnosis hopefully whatever treatment they give her works a treat, I'm with you on the world feeling different I honestly dont no what to think or feel at the moment its mind boggling you genuinely dont expect it would happen to you or someone close to you,I dont even no what to tell my kids. dont at all begin to think your being selfish people react in all different stages of grief that's what I was told anyway chin up love x
