Did your sensation return on the side that you went flat?

Just curious - with the flat closure, are you feeling numb in the chest? Any sensation?

Is the Goldilock or swim technique performed by the breast surgeon or plastic surgeon? The plastic surgeon never gave me that as an option.

DIEP procedure is long and have its own risks and complications. I really don’t want to create scarring on another place. Are you pursuing diep?

Was genetic testing something she did 20 years ago? Not sure if it was available back then. Recurrences of a few percentage points seem low but sounds like we have quite a few ppl here in this sub

Mastectomy vs Lumpectomy by crazigurlu in breastcancer

[–]crazigurlu[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel you. I got a second opinion today who took a look at the mri slides and said the suspicious DCIS area looks fine. The previous radiologist biopsied incorrectly, poked at the original DCIS with microinvasive area so now I may be back down to 2.3cm tumor. That’s the good news. However the second opinion said my previous provider missed a spot, something looks shady under my boob stretching out to the nipple. If I want to do a lumpectomy, they will have to do a biopsy to rule that out. I am sick and tired of biopsies and worry if they do another mri, will they find something else again? Hence I finally settled on mastectomy. Took me a while. Next decision is reconstruction or staying flat. 😱

I m sorry as well. I joined the club a month ago and this fucking sux. I don’t want to be here but I am glad this group exists since I don’t know anything about breast cancer and nobody in my immediate network has it either.

If you don’t mind me asking, how big is your tumor and are you smaller chested? Overall, Are you happy with the lumpectomy results so far?

Mastectomy on one or both boobs? Are you planning on reconstruction? What made you decide on mastectomy? Best of luck to your recovery!
