Re: Diagnosed this month

Thanks everyone. I start chemo in a few weeks - 8 rounds.
My BRCA came back negative. That was a relief.

I'm worried about my heart and weight gain. So I am working out in preparation of chemo

Re: Diagnosed this month

Thank you for your response.
I take the Brca test on Monday.
I think this will help with my decisions.

Re: Diagnosed this month

Got my results. No cancer in my lymph nodes. Woo hoo!

However my treatment changed from chemo and radiation to just radiation

Seems odd.
Did anyone's treatment plan change post lumectomy?
