Reccurrence?..Waiting on biopsy results
Breast Cancer | Last Active: May 10 3:02pm | Replies (60)Comment receiving replies
Does anyone know how common it is to have cancer show up in the body that is not breast related? Also on my path report from the biopsy of lymph node in liver shows negative for ER (estrogen related) and negative for liver involvement. Can the estrogen change over years from positive to negative?
So confusing. I just want to get to the bottom of this and get treatment.

Meme5, I don't have a statistic handy for you on how common it is for people to get a second (or third) cancer that is not related to the first cancer. But it does happen unfortunately.
I wonder if the liver biopsy that is ER negative is another indicator that it is not related to the ER+ breast cancer. I know it's hard to be patient. Fingers crossed that the upcoming surgery will put all the pieces of the puzzle together and you'll know what you're dealing with.
