Lumpectomy vs mastectomy, immediate vs delayed reconstruction

Hi there @Samsun I was 43 last year but with grown up kids when I was diagnosed stage 2a grade 3 (3cm tumor) triple negative bc left boob may last year. No lymph node involvement all scans clear.  I chose to have a mastectomy. I could of just had a lumpectomy but would of had to have chemo and radiation so i decided to take it off and just have chemo. Then I took the right boob off 6 months later as a prophylaxis measure. No regrets from me with either decision just waiting for recon now but that will be at least another 2 years away thanks to the wait times. You can also sometimes chose an immediate recon depending on your circumstances and what your surgeon says. Hope this helps. Margie xx
