I've been posting on bcmets,thanks for the website Phyllis it has helped out. I just had my follow up petscan and shockingly, already my mets have all gone away. I couldn't believe it! Dr was even shocked because my lungs were pretty bad. But I've been really positive and praying every night. I really been fighting to be here... http://www.healthcentral.com/breast-cancer/c/23725/76365/metastaic http://www.healthcentral.com/breast-cancer/c/23725/66476/scared-fight Thu, 09 Apr 2009 11:26:20 -0400 Ms Tiffany I saw the Onc yesterday and got the results to my petscan. Cancer has spread to my lungs, liver and bones. It's so hard to have faith after hearing that. But I will try because I want to be here for my children more than anything. Any advice or any websites I should go to, please let me know. http://www.healthcentral.com/breast-cancer/c/23725/66476/scared-fight http://www.healthcentral.com/breast-cancer/c/23725/65705/metastatic Thu, 02 Apr 2009 16:14:02 -0400 Ms Tiffany I havent written anything in a while on here. I was diagnosed with Breast Cancer last April and completed my 16th chemo treatment on Oct 15th. I had a hysterectomy on Mar17th, prior to that on Mar3rd I had a chest x-ray, it showed changes from the one that I had last May. Yesterday I saw my Oncologist for my check up.

She said I have fluid in my lungs and a few... http://www.healthcentral.com/breast-cancer/c/23725/65705/metastatic http://www.healthcentral.com/breast-cancer/c/23725/43517/bald-courage Sat, 04 Oct 2008 14:39:00 -0400 Ms Tiffany Cancer, you tried to take my spirit,you only tarnished my patience. Cancer, you thought you could steal my soul,you gave me stronger faith. Cancer, you plucked at my dignity,you didn't know I would remain proud. Cancer, you snatched away my strength,you couldn't bring me to my knees. Cancer, you warped my body and my mind,you didn't steal my hope. Cancer, you led to chemo, which took all my hair,But the bald badge of courage, I was glad to... http://www.healthcentral.com/breast-cancer/c/23725/43517/bald-courage http://www.healthcentral.com/breast-cancer/c/23725/42669/journey Sun, 28 Sep 2008 15:04:28 -0400 Ms Tiffany After a dbl mastectomy and 13 rounds of chemo so far, 3 to go. I am so glad its near the end. I do plan to get reconstruction the end of the year so that will be another obstacle to go through but I am so ready to start the new year fresh. I'm a stressed person I just hope after all this I don't worry about the cancer coming back. I know it can but that is not something I want to worry about everyday. Knowing that triple negative breast cancer... http://www.healthcentral.com/breast-cancer/c/23725/42669/journey http://www.healthcentral.com/breast-cancer/c/23725/35075/positive Fri, 25 Jul 2008 22:41:39 -0400 Ms Tiffany I just got my results back yesterday. I have the mutation Deleterious in BRCA1 gene. It wasn't much shock since my mother had breast cancer also at 35. I now worry about my sister almost 20 and my daughter 9. I've been reading the book Pretty is What Changes. My sister is thinking about going with the Prophylactic surgery (preventive mastectomies) like the writer in this book. My sister has not taken the test yet but this is what she's... http://www.healthcentral.com/breast-cancer/c/23725/35075/positive http://www.healthcentral.com/breast-cancer/c/23725/28303/clinical Mon, 19 May 2008 19:59:35 -0400 Ms Tiffany I would like to know if anyone has done a Clinical Trial for chemo or not. I'm not sure what I want to do. All the reasons I don't want to do it is seem selfish. How long I have to go through it, wanted to feel back to normal (the way it use to be) and back to work. But then what if i'm missing out on something great. I don't know. I've been onlline reading about them so much the past 4 days or so, but still not sure. I go back to the Oncologist... http://www.healthcentral.com/breast-cancer/c/23725/28303/clinical http://www.healthcentral.com/breast-cancer/c/23725/27478/1-depression Fri, 09 May 2008 23:55:16 -0400 Ms Tiffany On a good note my mastectomy went good and I am not that sore anymore. More at night than through the day. But somedays I just want to cry all day. Then the next day its like nothing is bothering me at all. I know I have so much more in store for me. I finally meet with the Oncologist next Wednesday, so hopefully I'll finally know whats ahead. I know how greatful I should be about finding my lump and being alive, but all I think about are my... http://www.healthcentral.com/breast-cancer/c/23725/27478/1-depression http://www.healthcentral.com/breast-cancer/c/23725/26052/mastectomy Fri, 25 Apr 2008 18:05:12 -0400 Ms Tiffany I got through it went in surgery about 1:00pm on 4-23 and out a little after 4pm. The good news is my nodes came back negative. Dr. was surprised with having 3 lumps in all. So i'm thankful about that. They only kept me 24hrs. I been doing ok, not to sore, very sleepy. http://www.healthcentral.com/breast-cancer/c/23725/26052/mastectomy http://www.healthcentral.com/breast-cancer/c/23725/25554/mastectomy Fri, 18 Apr 2008 20:38:26 -0400 Ms Tiffany Well I went to talk about a plan so I thought, with the Dr. yesterday. Soon as I got in the room he said well with you being so young and having the big lump in 1the right breast and 2 in the other there is no other way but to remove them both. I knew that might have been what he suggested, but I don't think I was ready to hear that. Then he told me April 23rd. I thought omg i'm having to take all this in so fast. I am so scared. I wish my... http://www.healthcentral.com/breast-cancer/c/23725/25554/mastectomy
