Early Breast Cancer
Hi All, I was recalled for mammograms and they did biopsies and was diagnosed on 25th June (of which would have been my mothers birthday). I have a 10mm lump plus some calcifications around that area...

Hi @Agent14516,
My situation is different to your, but sending you hugs for this scary time in your life.
I had a lumpectomy and my surgeon said she didn't want to do mastectomies when there was no need. I can see why you would think a mastectomy with your family history though. I would talk things over with your surgeon, husband and any family as its not an easy choice to make.
Wishing you all the best whatever you decide.
Sending hugs.
