Hi I was diagnosed in February with introduction papilloma atypica had first surgery and found it is DCIS with poor margin
I had my second surgery 3 weeks ago and they found more DCIS and need a 3rd surgery. Total dcis removed so far is 40mm last margin is 0.4mm
am confused as what to do. Gut feeling is mastectomy is drastic but as everytime I get checked it’s bad news. I may have no option if still more dcis with poor margins
I am worried about deformed breast with 3 excisions - what could be my options here? As my breast as now very different sizes.
any advice would help or any experience with any of these choices
Hi, sorry to read you are enduring multiple surgeries, must be so very frustrating. I don't know what I would do with the choice you’d are faced with, except I might ask the consultant what their recommendation is. You can also give the lovely folks here at Macmillan a call (0800 808 0000) and chat through the pros and cons with them. Best wishes
