Age at Diagnosis
 

I'm curious to know whether the HER2 population is by and large younger than the wider group of all those with bc. I haven't posted a poll before here and I'm not sure if I will get it set up right... but... here goes...

I voted at the 40-50 age range, as I was 50. But was shortly after my birthday.

The range should be 51 to 60, etc.

ooops!
 

You're right, Steph! Sorry for the confusion... "we means well..."

I was diagnosed 2 weeks after I turned 50 and voted in the 50-60 range. I didn't know which one to select.

Age At Diagnosis
 

Hi,

I was diagnosed 7 months after I had turned 50. I voted in the 50 - 60 group.
Turning "50" was not fun at all!

Susan

I was diagnosed 2 months after my 54th birthday. I voted in the 50 to 60 group. Looks like I am in the most popular group!!! Sandy

I was dx'd just after I turned 30...but the lump was there before 30..So I voted in the 20-30 range.
Tammy

I was dx'd at 48, 5 months later I turned 49.



Vicki

I was 49 when I was diagnosed.

Karen

I was dx. at age 35, 8 months after I gave birth to my 3rd and last child(girl). I had my first mamogram at age 30 because my mother died from breast cancer and I thought I needed to get a mamo. early. My insurance wasn't going to cover it, but I was dx. with fybrocystic breasts. My gyno. suggested I repeat the mamo. in one year. I became pregnant with my 2nd child(girl), nursed her for six months, and then had my mamo. Fybrocystic breast disease was the dx. Breast cancer is supposedly in the body 7-10 years before a lump can be felt. If this is the case for me then I had cancer that could not be dx. with mamograms. Blessings from Lu Ann.

I was DX at 48...I will be 49 at the end this month. (June)

Chelee

Diagnosed 1 month before my 46th birthday.

Linda was 50

Mine was found 4 months before my 49th birthday. Though if the radiologist had been more careful it would have been discovered earlier. My 5.3cm tumor was "missed"...

I was diagnosed in Feb 2005 at age 39.

Amy
