Ok so it says you do have some DCIS but what your diagnosis is, is IDC (infiltrating ductal caricinoma) 7-15mm, Grade 3 but it doesnt mention your Stage?

So you meet with the Surgeon? what about the Oncologist? as the Oncologist is the one who will discuss the treatment not the Surgeon. My Surgeon referred me after lumpectomy and results to an Oncologist who took it from there. They will explain your diagnosis and their recommendation for treatment for it. Doesnt matter if you dont quite think of things to ask, you can always email after the fact a list of questions you have. My Oncologist was more than happy to answer them. So try not to worry too much, take it a step at a time. xx M
