Get it out now or wait and think?
Hi, I'm newly diagnosed hormone positive her2 negative. I had my first appointment with my surgeon and was told my diagnosis a week ago. I was told to consider lumpectomy with radiation or mastectomy....

Thank you for all you advice and thanks for sharing your stories. May I ask if you were offered a mastectomy or lumpectomy followed by radiation at what point did you make that decision and then was the surgery explained to you and recurrence rates etc?
I feel like I have to make this choice first with limited information and if I dont hurry and make a decision I miss my chance at the first surgery that was offered then have to wait. I'm going through private system but feel it might have been quicker or vreadt care nurses more accessible in the public system. My surgeon has a breadt care nurse but she works part time. Is this normal?
Thanks
