My oncs told me the same thing and I choose mastectomy. Just a personal preference. We are all different. We all handle things like stress in different ways. For me mastectomy was the only way to go. But, that's me. Good luck with your decision process. AND ............... yahoo that chemo got rid of your tumor. That is awesome.
