Hello, received my biopsy results on Monday following a fluke breast cancer find after I signed up to a BRAID study (an ABB MRI) for women with dense breast tissue. Am 50yrs old with very high oestrogen levels (ranging from 1300 and 2198 during a serious of blood tests)
Left breast, Stage 2, grade 2, ER+
Have a 2nd MRI booked for next week (surgeon wanted some addition checks of other breast) and surgery (lymph nodes and waiting to find out if lumpectomy or mastectomy) planned for 29th.
New to this and scared. Given my high oestrogen levels, does this increase the risk of future reoccurrence? If that is the case, would a mastectomy mitigate that risk?
