Hello! My name is Zeph. I'm new to this site. I was diagnosed with DCIS (left breast) in Dec 2013 and underwent lumpectomy in mid-Jan 2014. Unfortunately, the pathology report on tissue sample showed presence of invasive cells. I will have to undergo a mastectomy and removal of lymph nodes soon. I'd like to have my breast reconstructed and am weighing up whether to have that carried out immediately or to delay the reconstruction. Wish there was a clear cut answer to all these questions!
I'm glad to be on this site, to be able to read and connect with people with similar experiences, to know that I'm not alone when I'm experiencing a whole range of feelings and emotions. To those who share their journey/experiences and write words of encouragement, "Thank you".
