Hi@Harvey1903
I haven’t been on here for while and was wondering how you went as our story was similar. You must be so relieved to have a plan with direction .
i got my results from my 3 rd re excision on Friday CLEAR MARGINS so my BS suggests I have radiation 6 weeks / 5 days per week with hormone treatment . My cancer was invasive ductal carcinoma it scanned at 4mm ended up 4 times bigger then had satellite nodules with ductal carcinoma in situ . Hormone positive HER negative . 3 surgeries due to unclear margins . The last margin she took 6 Cm and it was clear . I am meeting with oncologist on the 12 Th . The plan is that radiation will mop up any residual dc in situ ( none of this showed on my ultrasound ) they will also do an MRI within 6 months to check on things .
I am happy to have a plan at last .
wishing you all the best and so happy you have made a decision . The hardest part is the waiting and the not knowing .
Take care of yourself x
