Hi @GavinCh Sorry to hear that. It is something I had to go through as well. It is not at all uncommon for people to have to do this. It will be easier as no nodes will be taken and a quicker recovery. Once I had my re excision and they got results back I then had an MRI where they then found high grade DCIS ( cells in situ ) so then after chemo I had to had to have a Mastectomy. Touch wood for you both Karen only needs the re excision and you can both move forward after it. Thoughts are with you both xo
