Hulos, sorry the news wasn't good. I'm doing chemo first to shrink down the tumour but i only have two more ac to go then surgery. My tumor is still large in comparison to my small breast size and i cannot see it being a lumpectomy like we were aiming for. I think regardless I'm going to opt for mastectomy to avoid further surgery. I'm already scared just thinking about it.
