Hello everyone,

When diagnosed, how much did your doctors include you in your breast cancer treatment plan?

How does your plan look? Surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, hormonal therapy, targeted therapy - or maybe a combination?

Share, comment, and show support.

I was dx with stage 4 IDC 5 weeks ago. I have started the intensive chemotherapy and immosuppressent tx. The cancer has metastases to 3 of the thoracic vertebrae and 1 rib it's possible that it is in many other places. I am very fortunate that I am working with the state hospital university cancer team. They diffinitely know what they are doing and have made this much easier. My life will never be the same

Hi,

I was dx with IDC grade 3, I have 3 tumors in my right breast.. on Aug 22nd. I have been assigned to a cancer team, They are truly trying to help me but I have been on a fast road and all I seem to be is mad, harsh, and just mean to everyone... I just don't know why??? It isn't fair to anyone... but I am just so mad, depressed, crying...this is crazy!! I don't even like myself ... It is not like me to just give up, I feel so lost... is there anything I can do?

@Courtney_J I am getting very nervous and scared because the surgery is July 13, 2021. My parents both died this year so I dont have them to talk to. My mom died on Feb 16, 2021 with a sickness she was suffering for 18 months so i was dealing with that for the last months and then my dad had a major stroke 3 weeks after my mom passed away and he could no longer go back to his assistance living so we had to find a nursing home. We found one he was only in there 3 weeks and then he passed away on May 6, 2021. Right after all that I was diagnosed with cancer so I have been on a train that is non-stop. I feel like I am so tried out and I dont have much energy left. My sisters are not helpful they keep telling me just pray. They both got to take 2 weeks vacation after my mom and dad passed away. I have not even had time to take a breather I am just on the train of bad luck. That is how I am feeling.
