Good afternoon ladies my name is Lyn and I'm from Melbourne.
Last year I went for a routine mammogram and recieved the news That I had BC this started the trip I have been on for the last 12/18 months. I had extensive dcis and 2 surgeries later was advised to have a mastectomy as they couldn't get clear margins. I had chemo and 12 months of herceptin, then had mastectomy with immediate reconsruction and then a lift and new nipple. This Saturday I will be having a tatto on my new nipple.
Iam looking forward to the summit this is all new to me and I have found this site a great help connecting with others that are going through the same.
