I was first diagnosed in 2012 with breast cancer, I found a lump while having a shower had a mammogram to confirm it was cancer and then had lump removed which was found to be a grade 3 carcinoma PT2 20 mm Her2 negative IDC ER 8/8 PR 8/8 went onto have 5 out of 6 fec chemo stopped because i developed a blood clot on the lung and went on exemestane for 10 years had 18 rounds of rads as well , Then in 2016 I went for a mammogram to check everything was ok as I thought I had found another lump in my breast again turns out that side was okay but my other side showed a problem I had a biopsy and had to wait to see the surgeon who confirmed it was cancer again but it was a new primary one and i would have to have another operation to remove the cancer once again this time it was TN PT2 15mm with DCIS 2mm they wanted to have TC this time I had one lot of chemo then said no more as I got really ill but did do 18 rounds of rads each time I was told chemo was just precaution and wasn't a guarantee that it would work. after all the treatment was finished I got on with my life until i started to have a lot of chest infections so my doctor sent me for a chest x- ray in April 2017 and it came back clear but i have now found out something did show up but nothing was said then in October 2017 I had another X-ray this time something was flagged up and I had a biopsy, CT scan and Pet scan to confirm it was cancer so once again it was decided I needed the lump removed so a week before Christmas I had a wedge taken from my lung it was found to be metastatic breast cancer. I saw the oncologist and he decided I would have CT scans every 3 months i had one in Feb 18 and had the all clear then 2 weeks later I had another one and it came back i had another blood clot on my lung that i had the operation on. In May this year I had my 3 month Ct which showed something on the same lung again and i needed a pet scan to see what it was a week later i got the results I didn't want to hear the cancer I had multi tumours on my lung and i need chemo as I am now have metastasis and it can only be treated and cured.
