I was diagnosed with dcis in November I had a single mastectomy December 9th.
I was given pathology report and was told that they had found a small amount of invasive.
I was told that if I had only had lumpectomy then they would have missed it.
I have clear margins and luckily I don’t need chemotherapy or radiotherapy
I will have to take letrozole for 5 years. I have been very lucky I know but why do I keep bursting into tears and feeling more emotional than ever x
Thanks for sharing. Have not experience so far but have heard that the side effects of T. often go better with time. Best of luck!
Dr. P. Harvey is absolutely brilliant! He makes quite a few interesting point which might seem obvious, but not necessary when you’re dealing with it. Read it twice and copied some notes to tidy up my mind.
Thank you;)
