Hi sassy redhead,

Welcome to this group, but sorry you had to join. I was recently diagnosed with this, very fortunate they found early on my routine mmgr, was stage 1 ER+, & was told this is one of the most common types of breast cancer. I asked for first available on my appointments when possible. After my diagnosis, I was set up with a wonderful surgeon, then had a tracker implanted due to mine was small, then received an appointment for surgery. After surgery & post op visit, I received appts for oncology & radiology. I just started radiation today after my surgery date of 10/10/23. It’s a journey & lots of info/questions.

My prayers for you & your family. ❤️ please let us know how you’re doing.

Thank you dp! I already see an oncologist, due to me having Amyloidosis, I had an upper left lobe of my lung taken out in February. My husband who is healthy as can be at 84 has lymphoma, 2 type. So he goes every 3 weeks for treatment. When I say he is healthy, I mean he take not one perceptio. Until now!
So we have a lot we are working with, and we are the Glass half full kinda people. My oncologist said he would have my treatment plan a week from today. So he is on top of it! He sees both my husband and I. We trust him lots, plus my amyloidosis goes through Mayo too, because is so rare.
So I just wanted to know what to expect. I believe mine is also stage 1 but I have 3 lumps, it was 1 when I made my appointment 2-1/2 weeks ago. It’s not in my lymph node’s today.

Thanks for the comment back.
