either way the cancer can come back unfortunately! I had no choice in the matter I had to have a mastecomy. either way its like flipping a coin I think, theres no way of knowing what will happen in the future. Sorry I could not be any more help! :) What ever u feel is the right decision go with it and stick with it! :) U can get cancer anywhere in your body, thats the truth of it unfortunatley there are ways ofourse of trying to prevent it, but even with the best of odds, there is still somebody there that makes up that 1% :( This prob hasnt helped at all hehehe! prob making u feel worse: - well heres the upside, take what u can out of the experience and live everyday like it could b the last. Love. Live. Hope & enjoy every minute u are well. after Chemo and radiotherapy is done, sure u will feel much better. inside and out! :)
