Hi everyone from Halla, my story so far

@Halla they are supposed to be the same in terms of survival. I was also going to get lumpectomies, but surgeon changed his mind cos off all the changes. He said it wouldn’t be worth it as too much tissue would have to be taken out anyway. Im fine with having had the mastectomies. I had expanders inserted for later recon with implants. Usually if you have a mast you won’t need radiation. But do talk to your surgeon about it and ask what he/she thinks. I’m surprised so much was picked up in only a lumpectomy. But clear margins means they’re happy with what they got. They don’t suspect more is in there. But that could be just that quadrant. Did you do an MRI?
