@hello1234 I do have breast cancer. Metastatic carcinoma. I have my first appointment next Tuesday so I will learn what my options are. A transplant patient does have a higher risk of getting cancer because of the drugs. Took 38 years to happen so not too bad. I am optimistic that they will figure something out.

@rachel5239 I am so sorry to hear this news Rachel. Please let me know what's going on after your Tuesday consultation appointment. Will your oncology team coordinate with your transplant team and possibly lower immune suppression a tad? (I assume all of this will be discussed on Tuesday along with all of your options).
Are you a member of the breast cancer support group on Mayo Connect too? After you find out the type of cancer, options, etc you may want to post there to get some good real-life feedback from the gals that have been through the different treatment options. It's a wonderful group of women.
Please keep me posted after Tuesday and do something nice this weekend to treat yourself. Love ❤️
