|lol that gave me a good laugh thank you for that! I used to not be a
|fan of pink but I have an aggressive form of breast cancer that spread
|to my brain. So now I’m all for the pink and early detection so others
|don’t die from this or have this happen! I was diagnosed in COVID with
|stage 3 breast but when I relapsed in my brain so quickly they now
|believe I was already stage 4 when they found it. Wild but I’m still
|here somehow! It’s awesome!

|Since you love stories like this, I’ll just leave this here:
|First off, you are an incredible incredible inspiration for
|others. Thank you for that. Secondly, I worked with one
|of the first AIDS experts back in the bad old days of the 80s
|when nobody survived it. Unconventionally, the doctor never told
|our patients how long they had to live and when I asked him why,
|he said because “good” patients want to do what their doctors
|tell them so they will put their affairs in order and die when
|they were expected to. But without this “expiration
|date” from the doctor, our patients often went on to live for
|years and years. And now it’s actually a manageable
|disease. So much is in the mind. Your friends and family must be
|so proud of you.
|u/Forsaken-Pea-5727 - 4 hours
|
|Thank you for sharing this I love hearing things like this! It
|gives me hope. That Dr. sounds like he helped so many people
|with that approach. I was told by my oncologist the average
|life expectancy was 2 years but hopefully I have many more
|than that. When we left after that I was bummed and my sister
|was like do you think you’re average? No! So you’re getting
|more than that and since then I haven’t really listened too
|much to the statistics. When I would hear stories in support
|groups of Women that have beaten the odds I would tell my
|oncologist and they always kind of gave me a sympathetic like
|yes that’s nice look but never would get overly excited or
|give affirmation that I could be that too. I think sometimes
|they don’t want to get your hopes up. I’m glad they gave me
|the average so I could make some life decisions like I retired
|from working ect but now I just tell myself they never really
|know. And if others have had miraculous recoveries who’s to
|say I can’t too! 😀

|Yes! I had a lump on my breast that I went in for 2 years before I
|was diagnosed. The ultrasound and mammogram said I just had high
|dense breast tissue. I was young and I think that happens
|sometimes no one did anything wrong just the scans didn’t pick it
|up. Fast forward two years later I felt a lump under my armpit
|same side. They ended up doing a biopsy and it was breast cancer
|that spread to most of my lymph nodes on the left side. The tumor
|was right where the lump I had gone in for was and has been
|growing for 2 years. So I had a lot of cancer in my body by the
|time they found it. Rules with insurance have changed in the last
|years where Women can request 3D mammograms now. Which would have
|caught mine they work well for dense breast tissue and younger
|Women especially. So my advice is do self checks and if something
|feels different go in but also advocate for the 3D mammogram. They
|don’t offer them at first since they’re more expensive but they
|will approve it if you ask now. I’m in a local support group and
|it’s a bummer how many young Women have stage 4 breast cancer. It
|keeps impacting people younger and younger so it’s super important
|to advocate for yourself if something doesn’t feel right.
|Hopefully you don’t ever have to but knowledge is power! 💕

|Are you getting better? Is there any chance of recovery after you

|u/Forsaken-Pea-5727 - 10 hours
|
|Originally in May of 2022 they gave me an average life expectancy
|of 2 years. Usually when cancer spreads to the brain from a
|different spot it goes fairly quickly. In my case my breast cancer
|that spread to the brain is HER2+ which is aggressive but they
|know it grows by an excess protein so they know how to target it
|really well. Just some of those drugs have trouble crossing the
|blood/brain barrier so that’s where I got a secondary tumor. They
|did gamma knife radiation and gave me only a 2% chance of long
|term survival. Basically if I don’t progress on first line of
|targeted therapy in a metastatic setting I have a chance. It’s
|rare but it has happened like I wouldn’t be the first one. Right
|now they give me a brain MRI every 3 months and it lights up a bit
|more each time and is slightly growing/swelling. They aren’t sure
|if it’s tumor regrowth or radiation necrosis (damage from
|radiation). So until they know for sure they are just watching it
|and if it does grow back looking like tumor they have said they
|will do surgery this time. Since I haven’t had any other disease
|except this one brain met pop up. Basically in crude terms last
|time they wouldn’t do surgery since they didn’t think it would
|change my outcome since they didn’t know how much cancer I had
|circulating. This time they are willing to do surgery so they have
|belief I have a chance at survival which is cool! The neurosurgeon
|said he would do it curatively with craniotomy and radiation if it
|grows. Sorry that’s a lot of info but yes I’m saying there’s a
|chance! They have been pretty optimistic lately it’s really the
|further out you get without something happening the less likely it
|will with my type of cancer. So I just try not to think about it
|too much and enjoy life. I heard stress is bad for cancer so I’m
|trying not to worrying about things outside of my control.

|u/Forsaken-Pea-5727 - 3 hours

|I’m so sorry to hear about your mom going through this as
|well. After the brain tumor was found they radiated it and put
|me back on targeted maintenance therapy of Herceptin and
|Perjeta they are targeted drugs for HER2+ breast cancer.
|Neither get into the brain well so Mayo pushed to get me on a
|brain drug called Tucatanib early from the drug company. Since
|they said I might be dead before it was through clinical
|trials for first line in a metastatic setting they were able
|to get me on it early. I’ve been on it ever since and I think
|it’s a big part of why my brain is still stable. There’s some
|clinical trials available too that look promising but my
|oncologist said I’m not there yet. They call me oglimetaststjc
|which means I just have one distant spread site. Mine didn’t
|stay localized but it also doesn’t look like it’s widespread
|all over my body with multiple metastasis. Just the one brain
|tumor so far luckily. They scan me and are watching to see how
|it changes over time if it grows back they want to do surgery
|on it. My neurosurgeon said if it was in a better location
|they would be proactively be taking it out now. But since it’s
|on my occipital lobe I’m guaranteed to lose all vision in my
|left eye with surgery. So they’re waiting to make sure I need
|surgery before they do it. Since the tumors been stable for
|awhile just slightly changes each scan. They aren’t sure if
|it’s radiation necrosis or tumor regrowth so I basically just
|take my targeted therapy and we wait and watch. I already have
|some vision loss so even if I lose all of it out of that eye
|it wouldn’t be bad! I’m rooting for your Mom too! I hope she
|has a lot of years left in her too!

|I had a glioblastoma (>95% survival rate) removed from my left

|the seizure activity turned into the cancer. It was very aggressive
|and grew quickly, they took it out early may 2023, chemo did not help,
|kicked my ass, and it started to come back, then a procedure called
|Cyber knife, I lost mobility on my right side, had constant head
|aches, and had a hard time finding my "words"...Also, high doses of
|anti seizure meds as well...radiation bran swelling was significant.
|And then I was put on (bevacizumab) works differently than

|during the intense parts of radiation treatment and their after-
|effects, something I swore to them up and down during it that I
|would "never do again" and even "I'm never coming back!", only to
|come back the next morning all sheepishly. And then many, many moons
|later, speaking to them in follow-ups all brave like "Oh yeah, I'd
|totally do that again"-even though that'd mean my cancer had spread
|to my other salivary gland and lypmh node on the other side of my
|face. It's the only one I have left and I consume monstrous amounts
|of cannabis (in non-smokeable form), so imagine my cottonmouth!
|Anyway, I am also so happy to hear fellow survivor stories that are
|full of the realization that life alone, it IS the prize. You've
|won, you're still alive! You're a human in the act of ***being.***
|Keep breathing, homie.

|I’m from here grew up in a suburb of twin cities. It’s a great
|place to get sick if you’re going to. We’re lucky it’s so close so
|many people come from all over for it. Takes me about 2 hours to
|get down to Rochester from where I live now which isn’t too bad!
|We make it day trips mostly or when I have scans we stay one
|night. They do all my scans one day then the next day tell me the
|news so it isn’t bad at all. They don’t keep you wondering long at
|all which is nice! 😀
