Newly Diagnosed
Hi My name is Victoria, I'm 42 years old and I have been newly (well, 5.5 weeks ago) diagnosed with breast cancer. It is is located underneath the nipple on my left breast and it is invasive ductal ...
I just joined the group too! I was diagnosed with invasive lobular cancer in my right breast, had biopsy MRI,and then when I got the results of the MRI They said there were shadows in my left breast... so more biopsy to find out i have pre cancerous calcifications that will turn to cancer soon!! So now I have to have a double mastectomy on 5th June!! Wish me luck 🙏
Welcome 130655, Will be thinking of you on June the 5th. I’m 12 months post double mastectomy, so please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions etc. I’m about to go back under to have excess breast tissue removed that was left after my mastectomy 🥴🥴I made the decision to stay flat and it was the right decision for me😊I love being flat.
There is lots of info on this site read when you feel up to it. All the best.
Yes will definitely stay flat also thank you for your kind words..
The diagnosis journey is such a roller coaster, just when you think you have come to terms with it, there's another curve ball! A double mastectomy will give you so much peace of mind in the future, and I wish you a speedy recovery. Take care x
