Jenny,you are doing the right thing,by questioning the surgeons recommendation if you don't feel comfortable.Where do you live? Can you call the hospital and make another appointment with a different oncologist.Can you go to your GP and get a referral?As for the core biopsy finding...I had a core biopsy and was diagnosed with Invasive ductal carcinoma.I was also Her2 neg and oestrogen and prog positive.This was last September.Because of where my cancer was located within the breast,my surgeon suggested a mastectomy and explained to me why.I was very happy with this,and went on to have chemo afterwards.I am really well now.I am sure other ladies will come on here and give you their advice too.Dont be rushed into something though.As my surgeon said,a few weeks isn't going to make a difference.Cheers xoxRobyn
