New to this and a bit lost
Hello, I am a 44 year old woman, wife & mum who was told last night over a phone call that I have a grade 2 ductal cancer that is Estrogen sensitive. I need to make an appointment for either this week...
so sorry to hear you’ve joined our club!! My advice would be to not get too far ahead of yourself. See what your surgeon suggests as a way forward. Mine first suggested a mastectomy but I didn’t want so we went with a lumpectomy. 6 months later and armed with more information I’m considering a double mastectomy and reconstruction. There is time to make a decision. There will most likely be other treatment you will need to have.
There’s lots of info here and I have found it extremely helpful.
