Double mastectomy vs close monitoring??
I am currently awaiting gene testing results but am looking at my options. Of the ladies who have tnbc, and not got a faulty bcra gene result, who opted for mastectomy or chose close monitoring? What ...
I'm triple negative invasive lobular. It was in 3 sentinel nodes that were removed at the time of my wide local excision. A few weeks later, it was detected in a node in my neck. So instead of the planned mastectomy and axillary clearance, I was sent to chemo and then radiation (got a week and half left of that) my chemo oncologist and surgeon have agreed no need for mastectomy. There is a ? on some nodes in my armpit but waiting for my ct after radiation to determine that. Tarnya where are you located, I'm from Hervey Bay (pm if you like :smile: )
