Hello,

I was diagnosed Wed, Oct 21, 2015. This is what my Pathology Report states:

DCIS of intermediate nuclear grade with necrosis, calcifications & extension into lobules. Displaying cribiform & solid patterns. Fibroadenoma.

ER positive~ 90%

PR positive~ 90%

My first Oncology appt is tomorrow, Oct 28 followed by appt with Genetic Counselor. Thursday is an appt with breast surgeon.

I am not familiar with this whole process since this breast cancer is new to me. I am making a list of questions. Can anyone advise me on some important ones to ask? Mind has been spinning for 2 weeks now. Scared of decisions ahead & what to do.

Trying get an idea what this appointment will be about besides going forward with the gene test.

Thank you!
