I am booked for surgery on 31st for a lumpectomy + and have had calls from my two sisters who are nurses telling me I should be having a mastectomy instead. My surgeon went over everything carefully...

Hi Kester,
Good for you for backing your decision, that's why I love this network the honest responses are what gives you unbiased answers and you can judge your decision on merit.
I too had a lumpectomy April 2015 4 rounds of chemo & 6 weeks of radiation. Had my yearly check-up with my surgeon and all results were good news.
Only thing I have to worry about is keeping up the massage on left breast so I don't get a fluid build up, and using QV cream to keep it moisturised.
All the best for your treatment please keep us updated on how you are travelling.
