New breast cancer diagnosis

Hi there, just had a diagnosis of grade 2 ductal HER2 positive breast cancer. Any of you lovelies out there had a diagnosis of ductal HER2 positive? It has been caught very early, but is aggresive as you would know with HER2+ involvement. Any help or advice would be amazing. Many thanks in advance. L X

  • Hi yorkiegal. My breast cancer is similar to yours, same grade and mine is also her2 positive and er positive. Apparently the her2 positive part responds really well to treatment. I've just finished chemo and thankfully my tumours have shrunk. I will be having surgery 4th January and radiotherapy after. Do have your treatment plan yet? My advice would be to take your journey 1 step at a time. Sorry, I know it's not very original! But that's 1 way I can cope with mine, so I'm not even asking my consultant about radiotherapy yet until I get the op over with. I really hope your journey goes well for you 

  • Hi Amy, Thanks for taking the time, I have to have axilla ultrasound on friday to see if it’s spread to lymph nodes, i’ll be told the plan of action next, quite possibly after Christmas now. Taking it in my stride at the mo. All the best on your journey too Amy. L. X
