Hi Terrie, Welcome to the forum. I think the thing to remember is we each make our decisions based on multiple factors that are occurring at the time of diagnosis and the options that our surgeons present to us and these are very individual reasons. I don't believe that anyone just goes into this kind of surgery willy nilly without having a feeling for what is best for them. You will do your own research, make your own judgements, weigh the pros and cons of each thing and then make a decision that is right for you. Believe it nor not your next 6 days are going to be ruled by this decision (unless of course you have already decided. Wishing you all the best with this. Please if you do need to ask questions to assist you everyone on the forum has their own personal experience and no one decision is right or wrong. Big hugs Xx Cath
