Breast surgery

Hi there. I'm not sure what to say as my cancer was pretty straightforward.  I. On hormone therapy and have been for 5 yrs. I had a mastectomy then I had a risk reduction mastectomy on the other side with reconstruction about a year later. Mine unfortunately went to my bones. If I had to do it all again I wouldn't change it. My husband says as long as I'm still here they can chop off anything they like. Ha ha. 

Good luck. Xx

I had a mastectomy last Friday (14th) I have already been offered reconstruction but I might pass on that. As long as the cancer is gone that is all that is important to me.

Thank you for sharing Lily. Why has it spread to your bones if you dont mind me asking? Warmest wishes

Thank you for sharing. All the best x

It spread through my lymph nodes. I had a full clearance on the right side but it had already spread. When they took the other breast there was a second primary in that one. They said it was hard to find my tumors as they were lobular not ductual. The tamoxifen is preventing it from spreading further for now. Xx
