Aussie Breast Cancer Forum

Hi and welcome to the forum. I really don't know the stats of callback but there is obviously something that they are concerned about. It could be a precursor or something that needs attention or nothing. Every time I have been called back has been for good reason and I'm very thankful they picked i...

Hi Judy,
Gosh you've been through so much. Know we are in your corner, wishing and hoping for good results. Thanks for letting us know.

Thanks for posting Chris, that is wonderful news We still get lots of lookers who don't post that I'm sure appreciate hearing great news. Not to mention our regulars who don't do FB, and those who do, better to hear it twice than miss out.

I've also been concerned about how Judy is doing. I hope youre doing well Judy.

The grip sock slippers sounds lovely Bec. Quilts cost a lot if you're not a quilter.

I hope you're doing well with your chemo.

Thanks everyone, It's non small cell carcinoma (adenocarcinoma). I stopped smoking 34 years ago (I smoked for 10 years). It's not related to the BC. I saw specialist today and surgeon last Friday. I have a followup in 2 months with a CT scan. It was found incidentally after a CT to check my ruptured...

Thanks Ruth, I am doing well.

Primary lung cancer Ruth. No chemo, I saw the Cardiothoracic surgeon last week still to see my lung specialist who will do the follow up.

Sorry to hear that Aussie, I hope all goes well with treatment.

Hi Rosa,
I just saw this thread. I'm so sorry for what you've been through, losing your Mum. It sounds like you're running yourself ragged looking after everyone except yourself.

Try to take a break for your own health sake.

I guess I should let you know I had the upper lobe of my lung removed for a suspicious nodule. It was lung cancer but doing very well. Clear margins and nodes clear.
