Guest guest Posted January 8, 2007 Report Share Posted January 8, 2007 Hi, I am 22 years old and had breast cancer since I was 17. The cancer is a very rare type of breast cancer called angiosarcoma. I had mastectomy for my left breast, the tumor size is 11X9X4cm. 2 weeks after surgery I had 6 cycles of chemotherapy (with SFV 800gr, Neosar 600mg, MTX 70mg) and 35x radiotherapy. 1 year after the therapy the team doctor diagnosed that I was cancer- free. But now it's happen again, 1 month ago I diagnosed bone metastasis, spread from the breast. The infected area is my right shoulder bone, and the tumor size is 7cm and 2cm in diameter. The cancer type is still angiosarcoma and now it's on stage IV. The doctors suggest chemo and radiotherapy before surgery but they can't promise that I could be cured, because this cancer type is very rare and they're not having enough experience to handle it. If you guys have any information about angiosarcoma of breast and bone transplantation please tell me. Sorry if there's any mistake on my English and grammar x) feel free to give me comments and ask me questions. -Tyas Paramita Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 8, 2007 Report Share Posted January 8, 2007 Tyas: Wow! My first inclination is to say welcome to the group. English and grammar are the least of our worries in this group. You are already in my prayers and I will ask that friends and church family include you in their prayers. What a shocker at such a young age. Do you have family and some sort of support system? We are here for you. Jan K tyasparamita tyasparamita@...> wrote: Hi, I am 22 years old and had breast cancer since I was 17. The cancer is a very rare type of breast cancer called angiosarcoma.
