Hi @GinGin
Problem with any advice we give is that we are all different and none of us are oncologists.
My decision was pretty easy - I had a 5.5 cm lobular ER positive cancer and my breast cancer surgeon ( who is very experienced) said lobular cancer was notorious for being more extensive than shown in the MRI.
He also said that if he did a lumpectomy and didn’t get clear margins he would have to do a mastectomy anyway.
I went with his recommendation of a mastectomy and had reconstructive surgery ( my story and photos are in the private group “ Choosing Breast Reconstruction”.)
No one said this was easy .
Take care 🌺
