just diagnosed with a low grade, non invasive cancer. Know I am very lucky. Decision about which surgery option has to be done on Friday. I have read that there is an added risk of cancer forming in a breast which has had lumps-even if they were benign. Has anyone else heard of or had experience of this? Surgery has to be more than a lumpectomy but I could have as much tissue as possible kept to reform a breast..Thanks.x
