i was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2009 and had total masectomy and clearance on left side. Im back to work and carrying on as normally as i can but now im considering a hysterectomy, not sure if i want a full or perhaps just my ovaries. Its not something doctors or oncologist have brought up in conversation its just i see them as being unnesscary now im going through the change. Im 46 years old with two beautiful daughters, why take the risk of keeping them. I was her2-, i would love to hear your thoughts on this.
