Help please

I live at Kallangur, quite near to Petrie. I had my surgery at the Royal Brisbane. You are right in wanting to know more, it's your body, it's your life. I had 2 tumours, one was 8m and the other 15mm, I was sure I would have to have a mastectomy but the surgeon said because both tumours were in the same quandrant of the one breast and very close together he would treat them as one. He was very confident that he could do breast conserving surgery which would not leave me lopsided. I am large breasted. He did manage to remove them and get clear margins and with no node involvement and I can hardly notice the missing part of my breast. I was also in the public system and was fortunate to get a very good surgeon who also works at the Wesley Hospital. He was able to give me a choice on what surgery to have, not all women are that fortunate. In the end, I gathered all the facts I was given and decided on a lumpectomy. What surgery you have depends on a lot of things and you need time to digest all the facts. At the Royal Brisbane there were breast care nurses who helped with any questions I had.
