EndometrialC before or afterBC DX?

I don't know what the chances of having BC and endometrial cancer, but I have had both. In 2009 I had endometrial cancer and then in 2010 I had DCIS in left breast and then in 2012 tubular carcinoma (a form of IDC) in right breast. So, three separate primary cancers. I know that both the endometrial and Breast cancers can be hormone driven. As for them scheduling a hysteroscopy and D&C instead of hysterectomy, I suppose they feel they should have the actual diagnosis before doing the surgery. Again, I don't know the chances, but it could be something else. I will be hoping that it is something else that can be taken care of easily. Good luck to you.

Raffomini-

I was diagnosed with endometrial cancer about 4.5 years into my 5 year tamoxifen regimen.twice I had endometrial lining thickening (around 11mm) at which point I would choose a d&c instead of a biopsy -  I had no symptoms with the thickening - it was picked up on transvaginal ultrasound. the symptom which led to diagnosis was spotting - not much at all, not bleeding. I think there was a symptom that I shrugged off which was a very slight brown discharge which preceded the pink spotting.  This does not sound like what you have been experiencing, but who knows? What I want to tell you is this, there really don't seem to be many women on BCO who have had a diagnosis of endometrial cancer - use the search function and see for yourself.  there is a rare disorder, Cowdens Syndrome which links breast, thyroid and endometrial cancers and benign tumors and some other stuff, but again, not much mention of that on BCO.  I am hoping that you have something like fibroids and not endometrial cancer - because who wants another cancer? However, if you are diagnosed with it, I hope it is caught early, and that like me, you only need surgery and you are done with it.
