Surgical options
Hi all, I have been diagnosed with invasive breast cancer and I have my first meeting with the surgeon on Thursday. I know to expect surgery soon but dont know if this will be lumpectomy or mastec...
Hi
I was diagnosed with invasive breast cancer in April 2026. After having a pet scan I was advised to have a lumpectomy. I had the lumpectomy in May and have since had 12 rounds of chemo. Next week I will be having a double mastectomy and reconstruction. As i am a carrier of the BRAC2 gene I was advised that this would be the best option.
Hoping this helpful. All the best.
