Susan,
Yes, I had low grade adeno squamous metaplastic carcinoma in 2020. Then in 2024 I had invasive ductal carcinoma in the other breast.

How are you doing? Did you have a lumpectomy and radiation? Did you have chemo?

Hi @katrina123

I was stage 1b with LGASC in my left breast in September 2024 and had a double mastectomy less than a month after being diagnosed. No chemo or radiation. They did find pre cancerous cells in my right breast when they did the pathology during the mastectomy, though my right breast had looked clear during the MRI.

My second surgery to replace tissue expanders is tomorrow.

I’m sorry you’ve had two types. They told me that what they found in my right breast was likely not LGASC but a different cancer type.

Do you have a genetic mutation? I have CHEK 2.
