  • Hi Cathybin

    Sorry to hear you have been diagnosed with BC 

    I know it must have been very worrying!!

    Best not to think too much sit tight and get MRI out of the way and find out exactly what are you dealing with

    Did they tell you what grade its ? I assume you have had the biopsy! 

     

    I was diagnosed with grad 2 bc in October and osterzen positive 

    And then they didi the MRI luckly it was not spread anywhere else and it was stage 1

    I had the surgery and 5 days radiotherapy  and now on letrozole tablets for 5 years 

    Let us know how do you get on with the MRI

    thank you, it's the waiting that's so awful. They haven't said anything but just want to look for it as they think it's secondary in the armpit, though don't know what that means but I'm worried.

    I won't know until the 4th and it's really hard not to think about it.

  • I know just stay positive!!

    Have you told anyone in the family? 

    You will need support to get through these few days 

    They did say to me as well until I have the MRI they wouldn't know if I have any secondary cancer!! Under arms are lymph nodes some times they can be affected

    When they did my surgery they took out 4 lymph nodes to check it out if they were affected but they were all clear !!

    So please don't worry just try to keep yourself busy with other things x

    Good luck I hope you have better news on the 4th of March
