I was diagnosed with stage IIIC Breast Cancer in January 2004, while 7 months pregnant with my second daughter (11/18+ notes, her2+,ER-PR+...although later determined to be hormone negative). Earlier in that pregnancy, I found lump in my breast but assumed it was either clogged milk duct/mastitis like I had the prior year while breastfeeding, or just pregnancy changes. I had also had benign cyst 8 years earlier in the same place. I had no risk factors or family history, so didn’t worry about it. Several months later I found a lump under my arm ...

Hi, I was diagnosed in 2013 with ductal carcinoma in situ. My testing and surgeries were all at KU in their main hospital. I had a wonderful experience there.

In late January 2022 I went for my routine mammogram at Menorah Medical Center. A week later I was called back for an ultrasound. Then I was called back for a biopsy another week later. On Feb 11, 2022 I got the dreaded call from my doctor that I had invasive ductal carcinoma. Two and a half weeks later I was having a chemo port surgically put in and a week later started 6 rounds of chemotherapy. What a whirlwind. My oncologist requested an MRI of the breasts after my initial diagnosis and discovered the tumor was much larger than the mammogr...

Stage 1 Invasive Lobular Carcinoma

Hi! I was diagnosed with Stage 1 invasive lobular carcinoma in 2023. I am unbelievably lucky to have caught it so early. This is a sneaky cancer that often has no signs or symptoms. It was found at a routine mammogram at Diagnostic Imaging Centers. I did a lumpectomy and radiation. I also did genetic testing to make sure I didn't have the CDH1 mutation, and I didn't. Best wishes to anyone else out there with invasive lobular carcinoma!

I was diagnosed in 2023 and it was a shock! I had a lump I could feel in my left breast but I always have cysts so I wasn’t worried. I got it checked out and it was a cyst. Then they told me they found a mass in my right breast (that I could not feel) and it was not a cyst. I knew right then that I had breast cancer. I had a biopsy and it was confirmed.
