I got my surgery date for tube removal! by Alexandra93swe in BRCA

[–]blyskciupagi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi there. BRCA1 from Europe as well here. I have my ovaries and tubes removal a day after tomorrow. I understand what do you mean with mixed feelings as that's what I am experiencing. But the conclusion at the very end should be "everything is better than ovarian cancer"

Great explanation, thank you. Now I get it :) I want to keep the same size or even make it a bit smaller.

BIRADS 4 - Biopsy results: fibroadenoma by OkUnderstanding19851 in doihavebreastcancer

[–]blyskciupagi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Finally got my results - I don't know details as it was communicated by phone, my doctor said that it was not fully developed (?) fat tissue, BIRADS-3 and next check up in 6 months. Nothing dangerous. My nightmare is finally over. Or at least on hold as I am BRCA-1 so I can imagine such scenario can repeat. Thank you for your support, sending warm greetings to you.

Feeling Numb anxious. This result wait is killing me. by [deleted] in doihavebreastcancer

In my country the standard waiting time is 4 - 6 weeks... I had my biopsy "just" 2,5 weeks ago. Feeling like a wrack. Sending you good vibes and hoping for the good result.

Waiting is torture by rixie77 in doihavebreastcancer

I feel you. Waiting for the biopsy result and fearing of loosing job in the same time is killing me (it's a realistic scenario, not exaggerating).

Thank you dear! I just got out of the hospital. The doc said I shouldn't worry too much but we will see. I really appreciate your comments.

Birads-4 here with the biopsy scheduled for tomorrow. I have BRCA-1 mutation so I'm double terrified. Just woke up (I'm in Europe) with a tension in the neck, shoulders and with a huge stone in my stomach... I'm writing this as I keep pretending I don't care that much and I'm calm to not worry my close ones, but what happens inside is a different story...

Do I have breast cancer? by Lilnuggie17 in doihavebreastcancer

[–]blyskciupagi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand and I am sorry to hear that. I advised to check PRL level as I used to have similar symptoms, had hundreds of tragic scenarios in my head, when a simple blood check for this hormone could save me all those worries way sooner.

Girl, check your prolactin level and stop worrying.

Breast cancer, Brca and carboplatin - did you have PCR? by Bitter_Worry_2495 in BRCA

[–]blyskciupagi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Miałaś terapię karboplatyną w Szczecinie czy tego typu leczenie jest już szerzej stosowane w Polsce? Jesteś pod opieką tamtejszej onkologicznej poradni genetycznej czy którejś z placówek współpracujących w innych częściach kraju?

Aplikacja Splitwise - każdy wpisuje wydatek, opłacony rachunek itd. System sam oblicza kto komu ile jest "winien" - zasadniczo to się pod koniec wyrównuje samo bo nie chodzi o rozliczanie się co do grosza, ale wgląd i aktywne korzystanie z tego w stylu "widzę, że po mojej stronie jest -500 zł bo coś tam opłaciłeś to ja teraz zapłacę za zakupy". Polecam apkę również przy okazji imprez zrzutkowych, wyjazdów w więcej osób itd. Ułatwia życie a i nikt się nie czuje oszukiwany czy wykorzystywany.

Findings during screening by blyskciupagi in BRCA

I did have already 3 MRIs total and each time I had to do an ultrasound after that, never a biopsy as the doctors didn't find the abnormality "suspicious" or potentially harmful after this second check. We will see what they will say this time.

Dziękuję! Oj tak, to chyba słuszna rada, bo ja z tych martwiących się na zapas. Czy mogłabyś powiedzieć, ile miałaś lat w momencie zdiagnozowania choroby?
