- I was diagnosed with breast cancer at 7 weeks pregnant. In this video I talk about my breast cancer diagnosis, treatment while pregnant, chemotherapy, radiation, endocrine therapy, and where I am at now. For anyone that is going through this, I truly hope this video can help you feel a little less alone 💖.
*EDIT: There was an error in the text of this video. chemotherapy started at 15 wks pregnant - not 12.*

Thanks for sharing your story! I’m 30 years old and just finished chemo yesterday, I’m 35 weeks pregnant. I have stage 3c, IDC HR+ HER2-, inflammatory breast cancer. I found mine at 20 weeks and feel like a unicorn, nice to not feel so alone. ❤
First, I'm so terribly sorry we have this in common 😔. Secondly congrats on finishing chemo yesterday 🎉🎉. Lastly, thank YOU for sharing - I'm glad to hear this video made you feel less alone. We are 🦄s 1000% !! How are you feeling?
@@laurenmcranmer feeling so much better! Glad to be emerging out of the chemo fog. I was induced at 37 weeks and all went well!! We’ve got a healthy (but tiny) chemo baby. 😊 Surgery is in a week and a half, followed by 5 weeks radiation. I still have a lot of the mountain left to climb but glad to have a few big steps behind me. Hoping for the best.
@@joannayoutube ahh congratulations!!!! Enjoy that tiny baby!!! Best of luck with your surgery. It is truly a heavy load. One day a time.. even one moment at a time. 💖
Thanks for sharing! I am also 32 years old. I got the call that I have melanoma when I was 8 weeks pregnant. 3 days ago at 17 weeks pregnant I had a wide local excision and sentinel lymph node biopsy (removing 3 lymph nodes) while I was awake with local anesthesia and a nerve block. Those 2 hours under the knife and awake were not fun, to say the least, but I hope they got it all. Still waiting on the results. Although we have different cancers, I just want to thank you for sharing your story. It means a lot!
Two hours!!! That's so much. How are you doing now? Thank YOU for sharing with me too. It means so much
@@laurenmcranmer I’m doing fine overall, but still just waiting on the results.

Hi Lauren. I was diagnosed with IDC earlier this year. Bilateral mastectomy scheduled for April 10. Can I ask what the final pathological staging was for you? Thanks for the info. 💝
Hi Renee, I'm so sorry to hear this. I hope you're able to keep busy until the 10th. I know it can feel like a lifetime away. My final staging was 3a. 💗
Thanks Lauren, what was your onc's rationale for putting you on AI instead of Tamoxifen pls?
There are better outcomes. Additionally Tamoxifen has some not great side effects... I mean they all do but, I'm specifically referring to cancer. Since I wasn't in menopause yet, I needed to be put on an ovarian suppressant (Zoladex) first, then start the AI.
Hi Lauren, do you have a pathological mutation (faulty gene) of PALB2 or a variant of unknown significance? Thank you.
Hi! I do have a pathological variant of palb2
@@laurenmcranmer thank you, I have a VUS of PALB2. Good luck and thanks for replying! 🙏

Hi Lauren, how long will you be in CDK inhibitors?
Hi again!! So I actually just finished 🥲 I was on it for a total of two years
@@laurenmcranmer congratulations!!! You are amazing, such an inspiration!
Hi lauren. I am 5 month pregnant and i found a lump on my right breast , this size is 9.1mm. my gynecologist say its a fibroadenoma and nothing else. Can u please tell me.. u got any symptoms and all ...i am worry about it and im not focusing on my pregnancy . I have pain on my hand
Hi Prachi! I'm so glad you reached out. Do not be afraid to advocate for yourself and push for diagnostic testing. At least even an ultrasound! My symptoms were a lump and tenderness. The link was very small but firm. Wishing you the best of luck, keep me posted on you please !
Ultrasound had done before 2 months. I want to share my report to you..but how??? Any medium to contact with you??
