I think I want to delay sugery a couple of weeks while I ensure that I have firmly in my mind the value of each part of this. I feel as if everything was thrown at me at a dizzying pace until I was able to see my Medical Oncologist. I just love him. Your videos give even more credence to everything he told me.
I have the rest of me, who has autoimmune conditions, including psoriatic arthritis and horrible multiple chemical sensitivity, to guard and care for while cancer is treated. I'm looking for the most benefit from the least amt of exposure to medical facilities as possible. If I could tolerate being in them, I would still be working and not have had to endure the heartache of giving up the career that is at the core of my very being.
I'm ER+ HR2-, 1.6cm probably stage 1a. Feeling confident and reassured.Thanks for the fantastic teaching in these videos.
Thanks for coming here to share your thoughts. So good to have a physician you admire and trust. There is rarely a reason to rush into a treatment decision.
Ty for explaining different treatment options for Breast Cancer . You clarified certain questions or issues I have and your soft spoken manner calmed me. Cancer is a serious and scary med problem. Thanks again.💟🙏🏼
We’re so glad to hear that our videos have been helpful. Cancer is indeed a serious and scary medical problem, and it’s important to feel supported and informed. Thank you for your kind words.
Thank you for supporting breast cancer (health)🎀.
Thank you for watching and your continuous support to the Yerbba channel!
Finished radiation 1week ago. I wish I would of been told to gather abd pads before treatment. I would of liked to be prepared. Also, I hesitated to ask for pain meds I should of asked sooner.
Thank you for sharing your story. It is hard to ask for things from our doctors. Wishing you the best as you heal.
Thank you
Thank you for watching and your comment.
Could you please do video explaining nonenhancing breast masses on MRI in addition to enhancing mass? Thank you
We can add this to our list!
Thanks for this information. I'm just wondering about diet? A lady told me to stop all sugars if you get a cancer diagnosis. Is that true? Thank you so much. Mary
Thank you for reaching out, Mary. The relationship between diet and cancer is a complex and evolving topic. While there is ongoing research, no single food or dietary change has been proven to prevent or cure cancer. However, it's generally recommended to maintain a balanced and healthy diet during cancer treatment. Reducing added sugars and focusing on a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins can contribute to overall well-being. Also, we have a video that specifically discusses the safety of consuming sugar during breast cancer, which you may find informative: ruclips.net/video/HbUNShJvzxE/видео.html.
@yerbba thanks so much for your lengthy reply and for your channel. Its a great resource and I feel very safe in this space. Mary ☘️
Diagnosed with IDC, subtype tubular carcinoma, stage pT1b, sentinel nodes clear, clear margins after lumpectomy, tumour diameter was 0.8 cm, ER 90%, PR 90%, ki67 5%, no evidence of lymphovascular invasion. I’m 35 years old and in addition to radiation (30 rounds) one doctor prescribed zoladex for at least 2 years + tamoxifen for at least 5, while another doctor only tamoxifen for 5 years. What would be your opinion on adding quarterly zoladex shots to tamoxifen in my case please? Would it bring any additional benefit to my type of tumour regarding the risk of recurrence or the side effects overcome the benefits in my case?
Tubular cancers have an extremely low rate of recurrence. In particular, with the information you have written here, the benefit of ovarian suppression may be very low. If your preference is to "do everything," ovarian suppression would be reasonable. Similarly, if you preference is not to receive the ovarian suppression, that would also likely be extremely reasonable.

Thank you for another very informative and ‘kind’ video.
If a PET scan shows 2 tumours 20mm and 9mm, no apparent lymph node involvement but grade 3, HER2 positive, Er and PR negative stage 1 or 2
Also if you have a mastectomy and the tumour has already been dissolved by chemo what would be radiated?
Great questions. After mastectomy in people with tumors over 5 centimeters and/or positive lymph nodes who have had a mastectomy, the areas that are radiated include the chest wall and the regional lymph node areas. I hope this is helpful. People with Stage I (one) breast cancer who have mastectomy rarely need radiation therapy.
@@yerbba many thanks for taking the time to reply to me. I have since learnt the tumours are attached to the chest wall - hence I guess the need for radiation therapy?
Living with the Stigma of Cancer for 4years and not beign able to have a Healthy relationship & Healthy life was messing up my life really bad, until I got recommended to Dr Igho who helped me Get cured naturally after using Herbal medicine, he came into my life as a blessing. I Highly recommend anyone looking for a Qualified Specialialst.
What is Pathologic Stage 1A: pT1c,pNsnO,pMx (AJCC Staging Manual,8th?
This is a Stage I breast cancer. The tumor is between 1.1 and 2.0 centimeters, the sentinel node is negative, and the pathologist does not know the full clinical story (whether or not the patient has symptoms that indicate additional scans should be done). In general, it is the clinician that assigns the M stage (whether or not metastases are present). AJCC is the American Joint Committee on Cancer.
I was diagnosed with stage 1 IDC/DCIS ++- on 11/1. Lumpectomy on 12/14.
Tomorrow get my radiation port and first round. I’m grateful it was caught early, but am now wondering if cancer is somewhere else but hasn’t been caught. Not trying to be negative just scared
Thank you for sharing your experience with the Yerbba community. It's completely understandable to feel scared and anxious, especially during the early stages of diagnosis and treatment. Remember, it's okay to feel scared, and your emotions are valid. Surround yourself with support, and take things one step at a time. Wishing you strength and a smooth journey through your treatment. Thank you for watching.
Hi Dr Griggs, I am 48 years old and got breast cancer 8 years back (at 40 yrs old) at right breast with chemo and radiation done. It is ER & PR positive, HER2 negative with one lymph node positive. However, 8 years later, i am diagnosed with breast cancer on left breast, which the tumor size is 8x7x5mm, ER & PR positive, HER2 negative, lymph node negative, histologic grade : 2. CT scan negative With this, do you think chemotherapy is really needed ? Do you suggest I do Oncotype DX test?
Although we can't give specific advice without being part of your medical team, we can tell you that, if the lymph nodes are negative, a tumor genomic assay (such as the Oncotype DX) can help determine the benefit of chemotherapy (if there is a benefit or not). Wishing you the best.
Hi my mum was diagnosed with stage 1 breast cancer. Hasn't spread and just in one spot according to the doctor. My mum has 2 options for treatment either surgery or letrozole pills for 5-10 years. My mum has sleep apnea stage 3 which is quite bad and has to use a machine every night. Because she has sleep apnea and other issues it can be dangerous for her to be put to sleep for surgery as she might not wake up from it. But she also doesn't want to take the pill due to its side effects as she already has a bad health....she is wanting to have surgery where she is awake and not asleep but there has been no options or talk about that from the doctor. Can they do that and would it be safe? Thank u
We understand your concern about your mother going under anesthesia given her sleep apnea. There is a higher likelihood of difficulty with anesthesia, but it's not clear that this should preclude her from having the cancer removed. In general, we do not recommend omitting surgery and using endocrine therapy alone. It is highly likely that the surgery could be done without general anesthesia if she is deemed to be at high risk. Something to discuss with her medical team. Lymph node surgery usually requires general anesthesia, but removal of a breast tumor does not always require it. Wishing both of you the best.
Just wondering if your mum is in the UK. Several years back I read that studies in the UK showed that women over 65 had better outcomes with both surgery and aromatase inhibitor. I was stunned because that implied surgery wasn’t standard as an option. I sincerely hope that older women in the UK or anywhere are not being denied surgery for invasive breast cancer. Best of luck to your mother. I’m glad her cancer was caught early.
I am teacher and diagnose invasive breast cancer satge1 afraid but going for surgery
Facing surgery can be a challenging and anxiety-inducing experience. It's completely normal to feel afraid. Remember that you're not alone, and there is a supportive community here for you. Thanks for watching.
I was also diagnosed with same stage 1. Will be having surgery to remove tumor and sentinel lymp nodes this Thursday. I am ER and PR positive Hers2 negative. I started keto low carb diet and intermittent fasting 18/6 and I am feeling good. You are not alone! Stay positive😉
I am stage 1A too.. had lumpectomy 5 weeks ago and now on ny 3 out 23 days of radiation therapy. All the best!!!
sorry for late reply. Stage 1 A. GRADE 2
Thank you for sharing that information. Could you please clarify which specific comment you're referring to? Thanks for watching.
@@yerbba here is my third biopsy. The receptors. are all negatves. Hormones and Her2 Stage 1 A with 1.2 cm of tumor. What lies for me now? Please
Hello @@aliciamagcalas899, I have the same exact thing. I had lumpectomy 5 weeks ago and now on Day 3 of my radiation. All the best to you.
Kindly let me know of surgery is safe I am going for surgery .Need your prayers thanks
Surgery for breast cancer is extremely safe in general.
@@yerbba thanks need your prayers 🙏
Praying 🙏 for you 🙏
@@afshaniqbal6184how did your surgery go
ive just have cancer cells in my boob and armpit was told medication first to shrink the cells if not tumour will be cut out, stage 1 is easily cured
Systemic therapy before surgery is highly effective in decreasing the size of the tumor. In general, skipping surgery is not recommended even if the tumor shrinks considerably unless you are taking part in a clinical trial. Wishing you all the best.
HELLO , I M STAGE 3 BREAST CANCER , AND MY TUMOR WAS 0.5 CM ..IS IT TREATABLE
The goal of treatment in people with Stage III (3) disease is cure. While we can't guarantee an outcome in everyone, regardless of stage, we do treat with the goal o curing people with stages I, II, and III breast cancer.
no metastasis
Thanks for watching.
Mam meri nani ko thoda sa cener aya h thik ho jyega na sb ghr me ro rhe h 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Thank you for watching. We are sending you and your family strength.
I'm stage 2🩷
Thank you for watching. We will be uploading an updated Stage II video soon!
This is outdated. See dr. Thomas Seyfried and metabolic therapy.
Dr. Seyfried cites work on animal models and on people with brain tumors. His hypothesis that cancer is both a genetic and a metabolic disease is correct. For a dose of healthy skepticism, you may find this article helpful: sciencebasedmedicine.org/ketogenic-diets-for-cancer-hype-versus-science/
