I’ve no words of advice but wanted to let you know that I have read your post and feel really annoyed for you, it’s not fair to go through this once, let alone twice. I don’t think it is considered secondary bc if it’s a recurrence in the breast though. Good luck with the op.

Hi Quickstitcher,
So sorry to hear you have to face this journey again. My understanding is that if it occurs in the same breast it is considered to be a recurrence.Good luck for your op.
Luv and Hugs

Hi sorry to hear your news the only thing i can add is play the glad game and find something to be glad about. Be glad that it can be treated although absolutely agree awful and unfair to be going through it again. Treatment has moved on in 2.5 years and new things are coming out daily…
My partner and i always say if bad news play the glad game and it helps. Good luck.

Hi there

I was Dx with BC in 2007 and then again in 2009 and then for a 3rd time in Dec 2010, it could be that this diagnosis is a new primary and nothing to do with the 1st time round, this is what happened to me in 2009, they will be able to tell you this when they test the tumour, if this is the case it will probally be treated as a primary with more chemo. It could be a regional recuurence which means some of the cancer from the original tumours has invaded another part of the breast which is what has happened this 3rd time, this could mean more chemo but will depend on the histology results, sorry I am not much help but you can get through this again

take care
