- Welcome to my Breast Cancer Vlog
My breast cancer came back for the second time in July 2023.
I'm keeping a vlog to record what happened - partly as therapy for me and partly to educate you - find out what it's like to be treated as a doctor and a patient, share with you the highs and the lows and how I cope with the side effects
Week 1 - How I discovered my breast cancer had come back as a second local recurrence.

As a recently diagnosed breast cancer patient, I can’t tell you how moved I am by your story. Thank you for educating us all about this scary disease. I know you will get through this difficult time. Sending you virtual hugs and prayers.❤
Aww thank you. That means a lot x
Hey Dr Liz I'm so excited that you share your journey. I'm a stage 4 metastatic breast cancer survivor still in maintenance treatment. Blessings 💞 Thank you 😊
That's great to hear that you're still in maintenance treatment x
Thank you Liz ! So hard to navigate all this stuff on your own and you are doing it for us. It’s invaluable. I’m learning so much. And I’m just sorry that you have to learn this stuff by actually living it. It’s absolutely s**t isn’t it.
You are so welcome!
Hi Liz I have watched many of your informative videos and found them to be very helpful. I too have a local recurrence after 15 years following a double mastectomy back in 2009. I am very sorry to hear about your latest situation but admire you greatly and extremely grateful for you sharing all this important information information with others. You are an amazing lady and you have my utmost respect. Thank you so much Diane X
Really hard to hear, you have all my compassion for going through such rough times ❤
I appreciate that
In this world that we live in today, our politicians, all the big corporations, people who are famous, the neighbor down the street people who have there heads in the clouds what I'm trying to say is the love for your fellow man has gone out the window life has been so dehumanized until one sees your video on cancer and under stands how human we relay are. I do not know you but my human hart is on your side.Fight the good fight Dr. Liz! LG USA
Thank you!!!!
Thank you, Liz. You are such a wonderful example of resilience, honest about your struggles but moving forward nonetheless. I'm sorry you couldn't fully revel in your success. That was such a cruel situation. Yet, here you are, informing others through your own difficulties. You are such an inspiration even though I am sure this is not where you would wish to be. ❤
Aww thank you x x x
Than you Liz. So helpful. So honest and giving others great help in such a scary time. Is there advice for recently diagnosed stage 4 ...? Many many thanks. 🙏🏽🙏🏽
I think that experience of being breast cancer doctor and patient must be so different.all the best with your treatment
It is very odd having been on both sides of the operating table
Thank you so much for your detailed explanation of what happened to you. I appreciate the photos you took and I appreciate you sharing this very personal data.
You are so welcome!
Thank you for your honesty and for all the information you provide, Liz. It’s incredibly helpful and I hope you find it purposeful and healing in some way. I know so many people appreciate your work. I’m really sorry you’re having to go through this. Big hugs to you 💙
Thank you x
Thanks for sharing your story, I just bought your book. My mom was just found to have breast cancer in her lymph nodes after 17 years of thinking she was clear. She just had loads of scans and we got the results 60-90 minutes after each one, but one is a bit unclear so we're kinda in a waiting game to find out more and get treatment started. Watching videos like yours bring me comfort and also help me be more alert and on guard with my own health.
Oh I'm so sorry to hear about your mum. Give her a hug from me
Thank you Liz for the update, I have been thinking of you and wishing you well ❤
Thank you so much!
Thank you for bravely sharing your journey Dr. O’Riordan. I’ve already learned so much more specifically from you than other online and in-person sources. It must be your true gift for teaching and explaining medical concepts so well.
I’m praying for you that this biopsy comes back negative for cancer although I know you highly suspect that it is. If it is, I pray that you can feel the love and support around you as you tackle this treatable diagnosis.
You are helping so many people like myself learn to accept this new reality. My anxiety issues unfortunately get the best of me from time to time especially before annual scans. I’ve been cancer free since March 2022 my last month of active treatment.
Prayers of full health and happiness for you!💕🙏🏽
awww what a lovely message. Thank you x
I hope your test results will be ok and everything will be alright, I've learned so much from you and all your efforts and information you provide are so valuable! Thank you.
Thank you!
I developed rash by my entire mastectomy, 10 week post op. Dermatologist said it was lymphodemia. Recommend lymphatic massages 2x per week. Surgeon checked rash. She said nothing to worry about.
I had chemo/radiation/surgery in 2021, and you are so open and candid about breast cancer in a way that I understand. Wishing you the best and thank you.
Thanks x
Thank you for talking yo us we all need someone like you i was stage one with microinvasive no nodes, i worry sick about it as its taken over my life mine wa 11 years ago and i still worrying im 66 ,but you are a comfort thank you i hope you are all good again thank you ❤
thanks for sharing this with us
Thank you for sharing your experience. You’re so brave being able to do other things at a time when you had your own worries about your own health. All the very best to you going forward. You deserve the best!
Thanks x
Thankyou Dr liz, breast cancer is in my family and a few years ago i had a left salpingo oopherectomy due to multiple tumours. So i just try to be extra vigilant now, i wish you all the best.❤
Thank you x
Your a wonderful person. Lots of love. ♥️
Wow life can be so unfair. Be proud of your accomplishments writing your book overcoming cancer twice soon to be three times. You are an amazing selfless person feel the love & support coming your way.❤
Thank you
I had stage 1 lobular Er+ in 2014 then in 2019 I had local recurrence this time it was Stage 3 now and in 2022 it metastasised to my ovaries, stomach and skin. My skin met was just a little pimple on my back but i noticed it was growing. So i had it checkout and in a space of 2 weeks I was diagnosed with all mets. Thanks again for the vlog and explaining everything to us.
I'm so sorry this happened to you and thank you for sharing it with us. Lobular can be a sneaky so and so
Thank you for your videos. You are very honest. Many people are trying to brush under the carpet the topics of recurrence and metastatic breast cancer.
I know - it's often done through fear
I diagnosed last year , it’s been a year of this time stage 1 grade 1 IDC, praying for you, wishing you the best.
thank you
Thank you so much for the update. I have been concerned about you. Wishing you all the best with your future treatments ❤️
aww thank you so much
Dr Liz, Thank thank you for everything you are doing to inform and help others feel so much more resourced and much less alone, and from the epicentre of your own worry and agony, again. It’s so s h 1 t . Praying for your recovered health.
You are so brave to share your story. Thank you! I have dense tissue and just contacted my pcp to send my script for my 6 month follow up mammogram because I have a small red mark and so I figured I need to be serious about these follow ups. Your videos are helping so many people including myself :)
Thank you so much for your lovely comment. I hope the mammogram is normal
Thank you for your blog , so very useful and informative. I had breast cancer 10 years ago and despite being a reasonably well informed person I was never explicitly informed as to what and where I should be looking for a local reoccurrence or what the difference is, why aren’t we given this information ? Your blog will help save lives , Thank you .
I think there is so much information to give you that stuff gets lost in translation
Bless you for your struggle and for dutifully documenting both your struggles AND your learning. My dear wife of 50 years just had a breast removed and we are awaiting the call from the oncology folks. It's hard to wait, and to wait....
Thanks for sharing! All your videos help all of us!
You are so welcome!
How on earth is a breast cancer survivor meant to adequately perform a monthly breast self exam with any measure of accuracy or success, when all I can feel is scar tissue and lymphedema? If there is something sinister lurking there, how am I meant to feel it and recognize it as such?? This is what terrifies me. I would be so grateful for any advice. Thank you for your selfless sharing of your experience for our benefit. You are a truly beautiful human. 🙏🏼
It is hard. I get that. All you can do is get to used to how your breasts feel now - so scar tissue and swollen skin to help you pick up another cancer in the breast. The risk of that happening is much smaller with your other treatment and your yearly mammos aim to pick anyhting up well before you would notice anything
I'm glad that your channel is providing an outlet to dump all the feels, both good and bad. I don't think it is ever easy to put cancer completely behind us, is it? It's always lurking in the dark corners waiting to jump out and scare the sh*t out of us all over again. How did you make it through all the publicity, podcasts, interviews? Well, #1 you're a woman, and that is just what we do. We carry on, don't we? I totally duplicate that feeling of wanting the just flip the switch, stop time (and the world) until we feel like we can log back into life. There probably isn't a perfect solution, but I think you are doing brilliantly! (that, or you're a good faker). Much love, many hugs, sincere wishes for healing again. xoxo ❤❤❤
Thank you so much x
Thank-you Liz, I loved your book .So sorry you have to go through this. I, so understand the anxiety having had AML. Sending so much love.

Thank you so much for keeping us informed and safe, and continue doing it while you're going through turmoil yourself!
It helps me process everything by talking about it
Thank you for doing this. It is so informative - so much out there is directed at people who still have breast tissue - having had a DMX I find your videos really helpful. Lots of hugs to you xx
Thanks for taking the time to watch them
Thank you so much

Thank you so much x
Hi Liz, thank you for sharing your latest video. You are a very brave lady especially sharing your story. I'm wishing you all the best take care of yourself God bless 🙏
Thank you! You too!
Sending positive thoughts your way and thinking of you ❤❤
Thank you
My heart goes out to you Liz. You’ve done so much to reduce your risk of reoccurrence it’s just so unfair. I’m in awe at your strength and I love your nail colour ❤
Thank you. Yellow is the only colour
I don't mean to sound like a groupie, but your story is inspiring. It takes great internal strength and stability to go through what you are going through.
May your support system be heaven sent
Wow, thank you!
You’re bloody Marvellous
I'm blushing,,,
Thank you Liz for educating whilst going through your own health worries. I have read your book and couldn’t put it down. I have had inflammatory breast cancer and reading your book took me back to when I was going through all my treatment. I laughed and cried as you moved me with your story. A very inspirational read. Thank you for hard work. Jxxx❤❤❤
Aww thanks for sharing this with us x
Thankyou Liz for being so upfront, very helpful and informative. I didn't know what to look out for with reoccurrence . After treatment you are just left really in the system with no regular checks or appointments, I'm 6 yrs post, and having a final yearly mammogram next week. I always feel anxious leading up to this. Best wishes to you.
Thank you x
Sending you ❤ and positivity 😘
Thank you x
Grateful for all you share from your truly unique perspective as surgeon and patient of this awful disease. I listen intently to your knowledge. Praying for your outcome on this occurrence. Truly hate you find yoursey going through this...again.. I was stage 3, grade 2 last year. On lettizole as usual but also abemaciclib due to high risk of recurrence. So I am trying to be vigilant on watching for changes. Your information today was very appreciated. Thank you for sharing your story with us.
Thanks for sharing this with us x
Wishing you a good result from the tests xx
Thank you!!
When I got diagnosed in 2021, I looked everywhere for information and that search led me to your book -Breasr cancer. It became my Bible and it still is. In April this year 2023 I had a reoccurrence and I have just started radiotherapy.your story has moved me. For a long time I kept on thinking there must be something I did wrongly and I have had people who have subtly hinted that I have done something wrong to get a recurrence
I'm so glad you found my book was useful. Your recurrence was not your fault
Healing thoughts coming your way from an RN in Canada! Thank you for sharing your journey and educating us.💐⚘️🌷🌾🍁
Thank you so much! You've reminded me of the time I visited Toronto. Loved the city
@@DrLizORiordan I live in Toronto lol.
Your vlog is informative, poignant and compelling. Keep going, Liz - I am so sorry you have to go through this further experience and was gutted for you when it coincided with your book launch. I was at a Breast Cancer Now 'Moving Forward course yesterday and two of us were big 'Dr. Liz fans' and were proud to share your work with the others. Peer support at its best! xx
Aww - how lovely to meet you on here! so nice to know that I'm still able to help people now I'm no longer a surgeon
@@DrLizORiordan I honestly think you are helping people more. Certainly a lot more people! 😘
I too jumped ship from my day job, largely due to what I learned through my first breast cancer experience 20 years ago (life is short, do something you are passionate about!).
There are sometimes big hidden benefits, even though it is not what we would ever have chosen!! Xx
hope this time the treatment will be completely effective. Thank you for your blog and for sharing with us your experience as a sick doctor. I came across it when one of my close friends fell ill in June this year with triple negative breast cancer with involvement of the axillary nodes. On the one hand, we doctors are stronger because we fully understand the essence of the disease. On the other hand, because of this knowledge, we are more aware and therefore more sensitive. I wish you to be healthy and happy 👩 ⚕️🤗
Thank you
You will be well 🙏
Thank you
You are such a lovely person. Would love to have you for a doctor. Hope everything goes smoothly for you. I will be following along.
Thank you so much!
An extremely good idea to vlog your experience. All of this will be extremely helpful to others particularly as you have all the medical knowledge to explain it. Let’s hope this is the last of your personal experiences though ❤
Thank you and fingers crossed
Thank you so much for sharing. I cannot imagine how you are dealing with this for the 3rd time. The spot you showed most people would not even notice it at all. I was diagnosed in 2017 and had surgery, chemo and radiotherapy and my heart sinks everytime I hear of someone with a reoccurrence. Why is breast cancer so common? Is there any research into that?
We don’t know why it is so commons
All my digits crossed for you, dearest Liz. 💗
Thank you
Dear Dr Liz, I just wanted to reiterate all the lovely, positive thoughts that people have expressed for you here. You’re in a “waiting” phase which, as you know only too well, can sometimes be the most difficult of all. It’s difficult to even function on a basic level, so your vlogging and helping others is a huge act of generosity on your part. Just watching this one video & reading the comments & replies has taught me so much completely new information. I am ordering your book NOW! Ten years ago I had a mastectomy and had to have radiotherapy because as well as a small cancer tumour, I had a breast full of Stage 0 which was heading towards my chest wall. So should we also be checking the muscle? Thank you so much for everything that you’re doing Dr Liz. You are truly one of the most special people I’ve ever encountered. I’m praying with all my heart that your diagnosis is a good one, so hopefully negative or else curable with the minimum of treatment. Lots of love to you xx 💖🌸
Thank you so much for sharing this with us x x
Hello and thank you for your truthful and frank talk. I was just diagnosed with 4th stage breast cancer. I feel fine, except for pain at night underneath my armpit, where the cancer has spread throughout my body. (bones, lungs) just a bit tired, but nothing to complain about. Looking at me you would never guess I have stage 4 breast cancer! The other day my Dr. gave me Letrozole tablets. I have an EKG next Monday and a bone density coming up, so I thought I'd wait on taking them until they have a baseline on my heart and bone health. If someone like my self decides to skip all these horrific side effects, and pills to combat the bad effect of pills, I wonder, what would my life be like if I just let cancer take it's course? Does anyone just refuse all of this, so they can enjoy the rest of their life, no matter how long or short? I am 67 yrs old and I am asking some heavy questions. Thank you for all that you are doing to empower us who have been diagnosed with cancer.
some poeple refuse to take them but you have to be able not to blame yourself if your cancer does come back
Thank you for making this video. I’m currently waiting for a call from radiation to start my planning session next week. I was diagnosed with IDC with a lymph node effected as well. Pathology after surgery showed it was mixed IDC and ILC with DCIS. My doctors don’t think this makes a difference but I feel it’s just because the mixed type hasn’t really been studied much. Do you have any insight?
IDC and ILC are treated the same when it comes to surgery and radiotherapy and hormone therapy
just found you and you are a true treasure. so knowledgeable, to the point, genuine. My question is: what is AVERAGE amount of time for local recurrence? I am sure it varies quite a bit but if there's a "normal/average" time interval I'd like to know. You are now in my prayers "new friend".
There is no average time. It can happen after 6 months or 20 years x
I find your talks very useful. Im a retired military GP (not really retired, i had a career change, I'm a farmer these days😉). I have wonderful medical support but my family just seem to assume im immortal and can cope with anything, probably because i always have 🙄
It can be really hard, can't it?
Praying for you 🙏
I am going for my 4th chemo tomorrow very anxious as they are changing one of my chemo medication to EC, my pulse is very high since i started my chemo really scared if this will make it worse.
I wanted ask if there was anything I can do to help me minimise my side effects after chemo fpr 10 to 12 days i go though so much pain not being able to go to loo and if i do i lose blood, i have my skin peeling off, numbness in my legs and hands mouth blisters and blisters in my body.
Try my book www.amazon.com/Complete-Guide-Breast-Cancer-Empowered/dp/B07KQGTYXD and this blog post liz.oriordan.co.uk/2015/11/26/how-to-cope-with-chemo/#:~:text=Exercise,I%20just%20felt%20too%20weak.
Thanks for the detailed information .. I wanted to ask about receptors hr+ and her2 + or her2 - ? .. and now from the hindsight do you regret taking endocrine therapy and removing ovary ? Do you feel the didn't do the job they meant to do despite bearing the side effects ? Or you feel they maybe prevented a worse outcome?
Hormonal therapy delayed my cancer coming back. I don't regret it at all
Thank you for sharing. I think almost two-decade recurrence was more difficult from initial dx
it's hard isnt it?
@@DrLizORiordan Yes. Living in the here and now is challenging.
Best wishes doc you are so strong have u checked whether you have BRCA gene mutation ? Hope u recover soon! I have implant reconstruction too with nipple so I am also worried that a recurrence would cost my implant don’t want another surgery 😢 I am of Her2
I don't have the BRCA mutation.
Despite all the medical profession's claims this disease, particularly of the breast, cannot be cured. Sorry. You seem like a good person. The NHS health care workers in Havring/Redbridge abused my mother who was already disabled. Nine years on after losing my Mum it hurts deeply how she suffered through chemotherapy, drugs, bone biopsy and how she tolerated the abuse on top of it. I wish you well.
We cure about 75% of all breast cancers but at the moment we can’t beat bad biology
Thank you Dr. Liz for your sharing. I started watching your videos yesterday. God bless you always.
You are so welcome
❤
I am so glad I found you. IDC in Nov broke humerus big surgery had to wait till April
Tumor 1.6 cen grew .8 close to chest wall removed tumor no lymph nodes involved. Won't do chemo I am 77 says I might not survive no radiation.
Not that I want any of it but I thought they should have done more then Anastrozle. My onco score 30. Stage 1 grade 2 tumor. Do you think this is enough? JUST CAUSE I AM 77 I am not ready to die
I'm sorry but I can't give personal medical advice. But Anastrazole works well in many women
I like factual content, as they don't have time for this @SouthTees
So "Knowledge is Power" Foucault
You are empowering all of us thank you x
I didn't have time for it either when I worked as a breast surgeon. Each appointment was only meant to be ten minutes long
This disease is so scary. I wouldn’t have known little pimple looking things are breast cancer.
It can be scary. Hoping I can help educate people with my videos
Wishing you all the very best. As for a question, if you don’t mind, do you think it’s a good idea (ie reduces chance of a recurrence or new breast cancer) if, having had a mastectomy one side, one has the other breast removed? Currently living in fear that it will appear in remaining breast, as it did with my mother.
I get asked this a lot and cover it in my book ' The Complete Guide to Breast Cancer'. Removing a healthy breast will not stop your breast cancer coming back in your bones or organs, and the treatment you have had for your original breast cancer will also reduce the risk of you getting breast cancer in the other side
Thank you for your reply. Yes, I have your book. Bought it in 2019 when first diagnosed. Best of luck to you for your treatment and future. X
Thank you for sharing your story and good luck that your results are negative 🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀, another one I am going to light candles for.
I had my first diagnosis in March, mastectomy on one side, another operation for several lymph nodes as my sentinel was cancerous as well. On Tamoxifen since then. A bit older than you but with several chronic diseases in tow and a 13 year old son. I am so afraid it might come back, my hubby does not really understand how it feels. None of my other diseases could kill me apart from the Addisons, but I have had it so long, I am good at avoiding a crisis.
The breast cancer thing is different, one you can‘t trust and my hubby simply is cooler than me. I thank you so much for telling us what we have to look for as I would have never thought the skin could be involved. I thought the side was safe with the breast gone. It is why I decided to have a mastectomy plus with CFS/ME in tow it was unthinkable to drive one hour to radiation, get it and drive back, so for me it was the only option.
Again, thank you and good luck 🍀
Warm wishes from Germany 🫶🏼☮️
P.S. You have really cool glasses 😃
Thank you for sharing this with us
Hi,
Did you did oncotype test ?
Thank you
No I didn't.
Dear Liz, so sorry to read the things you are going through. I wish you all the best and will keep my fingers crossed for you. You have done so much for us. Now we are here to comfort you. Kick this piece of sh...in the a...! Beate
I'll do my best x
I was diagnosed last year with HER2 Negative Brest cancer. CanI contact you somehow? and ask you few questions? Greetings
Hi. I can’t answer personal medical questions.
If you’re worried about breast cancer, speak to your GP.
For general breast cancer advice, check out my book - The Complete Guide To Breast Cancer. (www.amazon.co.uk/Complete-Guide-Breast-Cancer-Empowered/dp/1785041878)
One question
Asked with full respect
Having gone through this awful experience do you ever think you were less than completely empathetic with your breast cancer patients when a Surgeon
Did it seem more like a skilled job performed as you moved onto your next patient
I realize no Doctor can take on another’s suffering but would appreciate your thoughts
I was a very empathetic doctor before my diagnosis. Becoming a patient only helped me realise what further information they needed
Buon giorno Dr Liz mia figlia lunedì 4 sarà operata al seno sono preoccupata tantissimo perché la sua dianiosi non è stata veloce,,, il medico che gli ha fatto l'ecografia e mammografia mammografia non si è accorto grazie
Spero che l'operazione vada bene. Mando a entrambi un tenero abbraccio
What’s it like to be thrown into Medical Menopause
Notice you love the colour yellow
Love your energy and spirit
Hugs 🤗
I never wore yellow before cancer
I think Ribociclib 600mg +AI will work wonder.
let's see...
What do you feel was the root cause of your cancer
Chance
@@DrLizORiordan For everything they say for one to do to prevent cancer, I have seen all those scenarios proven wrong. It's definitely a mystery
Three times🤯🤯🤯. Good grief! I would've gone crazy. Living in the US, where medical treatment is so freaking expensive, depression would set in. I hope that this is the last time this uninvited guest appears🙏🏾. Best wishes!
Thank you

I am at high for risk breast cancer recurrence. I am currently on tamoxifen and abemaciclib aldough I was having my periods before my diagnosis I am not offered zoladex . Anyone else? Thanks
From Philippines. BRCA1 recently 2022 diagnosed. Each year will always be close monitoring already. 🙏🩺
Be brave, sis. Sending hugs and prayers. Pinay din ako pero nasa ibang bansa. Can I DM you regarding BRCA test?
Hope the monitoring goes OK
@@DrLizORiordan Thanks Dr. Liz. 🥰 Got my 2023 monitoring procedures done last week. Good results, clear thank God. Still recuperating from everything. Next procedures early of 2024. 🙏🩺💖🤗🙋
