The type of cancer I have is invasive ductal carcinoma grade 1-2, ductal carcinoma in SITU grade 2, estrogen receptor positive, and progesterone receptor positive. Because it is invasive, it has broke the barrier of the milk ducts and invaded the surrounding breast tissue. We are waiting for one more result from the biopsy. The last result will be if it is HER-2NEU equivocal positive. If that is positive then we most likely have an aggressive cancer.
What do I do now???
LOADS of tests...blood work, including testing for the breast cancer gene; PET/CT scan; bone scan; and MRI. Some of these will help determine if it has spread elsewhere.
We are at a stage II, this could change with the results of the tests.
What is the possible treatment???
surgery and chemotherapy and hormonal therapy, not sure of the order yet.
Will write more soon!
Keep me in your prayers!
