    DXed at 57
    Now 58, at 6 months post-surgery. Mammograms and MRIs show all is well!! My mom was DXed at age 57 with the bone-marrow cancer that eventually killed her at 63. Ugh.

    Amazed
    At how many breast cancer patients under the age of 50....

    I was diagnosed at age 65 in June 2009. Mammogram, ultrasound and biopsy all the same day. Definite diagnosis two days later. Chemo began end of July (5 treatments), surgery Dec. 3 (lumpectomy) and now half way through rads.

    Its been a long journey and today I was thinking how sick I am of all of this. Guess its the fatigue getting to me.

    hi
    I was 34 at diagnosis in November 2008. I'm now 35. For all you youngens out there www.youngsurvival.org is a site focused on women under 40 with bc. Lots of issues such as fertility, dating, BRCA status, triple negative, etc. are discussed there, too.
