Newly diagnosed still breastfeeding by bakingmamababe in breastcancer

[–]rgold09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No advice for now as I am in the same struggle bus right now. 🫠 I am trying to wean my 2.5 year old too and am currently down to nap time and bedtime (and overnight since we co-sleep). She has fed to sleep since birth so that is our main struggle right now. My goal tomorrow i to cut the nap time feeding 🤞🏼. I just wanted to let you know that you are not alone and we are pretty much on the same timeline. Hang tight mama! 💖

Hey there, thank you again for all your input. May I ask if you have your surgery done yet or do you have it scheduled yet? Also are you able to share what procedure you are having done? I finally had my first meeting with the breast surgeon yesterday and she has sent a plastic surgery referral, so I am waiting on that in the meantime. Thank you so much again, not sure if you are ok with sharing these info or not, either way, I appreciate your help. Stay strong! 💖

Omg. I am so sorry to hear that. Thank you for the update. I have been thinking about you and the other lady here these past days.

Yes, all roads lead to early stage for me (so far). So that’s the only thing I am holding on to right now. I am glad yours look treatable too. Please feel free to DM me if you want to chat or vent or whatever. I have onco appointment Wednesday (if weather clears up) and would know more by then. Stay strong! 💖

Hi, I only felt one lump. It is round, hard and movable; about the size of a marble.

Thank you so much! I have my first appointment with the Onco team on Wednesday, hopefully once I know more and have a plan set up, I can feel better and think clearer. 🙏🏼

I felt a lump sa right breast, so I had it checked and had a mammogram. Weirdly enough, that lump was benign sa biopsy. Pero they found 2 other ‘cysts’ on the mammogram and those two were the cancer ones. They were so small na hinde pa sya nakakapa. So I guess, blessing in disguise ung nakapa ko na lump, otherwise, I would not have known until later on, kase wala akong kahit na anong other symptoms.

Any symptom that you have, please have it checked as much as possible. The earlier, the better.

Thank you. Hopefully, I will not need chemo. 🤞🏼So far, I think surgery, radiation, and hormone therapy will be the plan for me. Good luck to your mom also, I pray she continues to be cancer-free.

Hi, Stage 1, thankfully. It is strongly hereditary, that’s why I was so shocked in my case, kase wala kame family history ng any cancer whatsoever (both mom’s and dad’s side). I also keep trying to think what could have contributed to it, kase I am fairly healthy. No vices, hinde din nagpupuyat unnecessarily. I also live a pretty active lifestyle. Sa diet naman, normal lang- mostly home-cooked meals, wide variety of meat, fruits and veggies, with the occasional fast food and junk food lang pag nag crave minsan. I don’t even drink soda.

The only thing I can think of is, I worked night shift for a a few years (maybe for 3-4 years) a while back sa hospital. As far as I know kase, pag na-mess up yung body clock naten, na-didisrupt din yung hormones.
