invasive ductal carcinoma and dcis and alh diagnosis

Options

So I am not sure but I think the dr recommends mastectomy over lumpectomy because of how much surface this covers. I cant figure out how to put my info on this page for advise.

    Go to "My Profile" above and then "My Diagnosis" and then look for the little pink word (Settings) in the paragraph on the right side of the page. Click on that. You should be able to fill out your diagnosis, etc, there. That will help you get some good answers.

    I had a large area taken out in 2016 (8cm x 6cm x 3.3cm) and didn't bother with any reconstruction. That breast is smaller, but not so much that you notice it when I'm wearing clothes. That's often the first decision you have to make--lumpectomy or mastectomy.

    Thank you I did not realize it put my name. I thought it said that was private. Hope it’s gone now. Please let me know if it still shows. Thanks again
