Hi Jane,
Thank you so much for sharing your experience!
I am so happy for you that you caught it early, no chemo and radio. Can I ask how did you make the decision to have mastectomy and reconstruction with implant? For me, my breast surgery offered me the option of lumpectomy or mastectomy, but recommended lumpectomy. He said to me I will need mastectomy if the pathology results show unclear margin. I made the decision for lumpectomy at the time, because I was in a shock state, I felt it was too much for me to cope losing my whole breast and I would like to give it one chance to be with me. My pathology results showed clear margin, but LCIS across the whole specimen. Although I am going to have mastectomy now, I don't regret for my decision for the lumpectomy . I am looking forward for the appointment with a plastic surgeon to see what options are there.
I love your tattoo of pink ribbon on your wrist!
I have found so many amazing, strong and supportive women here. I think I have been spending too much time here since I join in the club. I forgot my beautiful plants in the garden need me to look after them
