Lymphatic Vascular Invasions LVI’s
Hi just wondering if anyone else has had this problem and how you dealt with it. I had lumpectomy 3 months ago, all lymph nodes clear and negative but I had these LVI’s and it is very difficult to get...
It was very worrying at the time plus 3 lymph nodes had cancer but they got it all in the end. Having a mastectomy is not an easy decision especially if you are being offered other options. Are all your team in agreement with a lumpectomy as this may help you decide? I was out of pocket 14,000 for the plastic surgeon and more for my breast surgeon who performed my prophylactic mastectomy on the other side. I didn’t have a lot of tummy fat for 2 breasts but have the same size as before which is all I wanted. Join the breast reconstruction group as there will be others who may be able to recommend a surgeon practising in private & public system.
