Hello all I've just joined the network. This is my status. Lumpectomy after DCIS insitu highly invasive, nuclear high grade, too small to be able to get hormone readings. Yes, I'm lucky....sort of...

@kmakm thank you for your response. You've touched on something I've thought much about. My tumour was very small - I'm lucky. I have thought many times, what else is in there though not detected yet. This same breast has had many cyst aspirations, other core biopsies, 2 benign fibroid adenomas now the high grade DCIS removed with clear margins on 11 Jan this year. I've been going to the same breast clinic in Brisbane for the past 18 years, checked every year and at one point was there every week for months with what was described then as having problematic breasts. Radiation after lumpectomy was what was recommended and would still be the obvious choice. But.............my gut isn't settled!
A skin and nipple sparing mastectomy with immediate implant reconstruction is still top of the list for my path forward.
I'd love to hear from other women who've had this procedure.
thank you all who've shared so much with me on my decision journey..xx
