@outra I think it depends on your diagnosis, I know through both of mine I thought hmmm I dont have the energy either time. I have fibromyalgia, diagnosed over 10yrs ago, but its never stopped me from much, incredibly hard you bet!!! So I really think you need your complete diagnosis to make a decision. I had very aggressive treatment for DCIS in 2011, radiation and tamoxifen for 4yrs and I still had a recurrence in the same spot. Scary!! So I think now, what if I hadnt done anything back then, Id hate to think what would have happened. I did have to have Chemo in 2015 which I was so against and this year opted for a single mastectomy/diep flap recon. Ive been happy with my path so far its so personal honestly, and only you know what is best for you. I think I have peace in knowing for me, Ive done everything I can, there isnt anything more now. All the best xx Melinda
