More News

 The type of cancer I have is mixed invasive ductal and lobular carcinoma.  Two of the many different kinds of breast cancer are invasive ductal carcinoma and invasive lobular carcinoma. I somehow have features of both.  My tumor markers were positive, so I am ER+ and PR+, but HER2-.  This means that the tumor is fed by estrogen and progesterone.  Because of that, there are more treatment options for it which is good news. 


I see the breast specialist surgeon on Sept 28th and my MRI is scheduled for Oct 2nd.  The waiting has been the worst part.  Please say a prayer for me and my family.
