There are also subtypes listed on this page to narrow down the type of cancer to match your dx.

Also, if you can take a few minutes and fill in some details of your journey so far, it will help others as they try to answer questions for you, it also helps others as they search through the data base to find someone like themselves.

Hi there, and welcome. I'm also stage II, diagnosed in Oct 2014. I know what a shock it is to hear the diagnosis. This is the worst part of it, waiting to get the full picture re treatment. I had a lumpectomy, and now halfway through chemo. Rest assured it is all doable, just take care of yourself, and ask all the questions you want! This is a great group, very supportive.

So sorry you have to go on this journey. If you have any questions or concerns or just want to vent, feel free to do so. There are so many caring people on this site who have all been through it and understand what you're going through. You are stronger than you think and will get through it. Best wishes on all your decisions and treatments.

Welcome! So sorry about your diagnosis. It is all so overwhelming in the beginning. I didn't know anything about breast cancer before my diagnosis and thought all breast cancer and treatment was all the same. Boy, did I find out how wrong I was. I was stage IIB and I am now 55. Finding out if you are ER, PR, and Her2 positive or negative will help your doctors decide what treatment would be best for you. Please feel free to ask questions and vent frustrations and fears. This is such a wonderful site with caring people who understand what you are going through.

Hi, my name is Sharlie and I just received my diagnosis 2 days ago. We're kind of in the same boat, so I wanted to reach out to you. If you want to share anything here, I'm available.

Or we can exchange emails and communicate that way. I just thought it might be good to talk with someone who is experiencing the same thing...same shock, at the same time.

Welcome to the site. I am sure that you will find this a friendly place to come when you need someone to talk to. We are all in the same boat when it comes to emotions and feelings about our health. Just know that no question is to silly to ask and if you need to vent because you are having a bad day, we are here for you. I hope you find this site as helpful to you as it has been for me.

Hi, suesmaree. I see you're new to the web site. You have found a great resource here. There are a lot of really wonderful people on this web site - very kind, helpful, and supportive. I hope you find as much support here as I have. I bet you will. Take care.

Welcome to the WhatNext family! The WhatNext family is made up of people like you who are looking for help or looking to help others. To help you along your journey the WhatNext family has put together a Beginner's Guide to Cancer that I highly recommend you check-out here: http://bit.ly/10BQKCi. Also, please do not hesitate to reach out to others or ask for help.

Wishing you the best.
