Primary and secondary diagnosis at the same time?

Living with secondary breast cancer Supporting each other and sharing experiences

Hello.

 

I was diagnosed at 49 with primary and secondary breast cancer (in the lungs and now it appears the  spine) in September. My final chemo session is next week and hormone therapy (I’m HER-2, ER and PR positive) will continue every three weeks thereafter. I flip between feeling quite positive to utter despair. It would be great to hear from anyone who has had to cope with this double-whammy at first diagnosis.

 

Thank you.

Same boat as you and would be interested to hear from others too. I have recently been diagnosed and start my treatment next week. I started with just a spread to my lymph nodes last week but after a PET CT have spots in liver and pelvis ? I’m also triple positive.
