Re: mastectomy versus lumpectomy for HER2

Norkdo, I hate to disagree but I live in Ireland of Irish parents and must admit the majority of the Irish people are not vain at all and not sure where you got that from, I wonder if a persons country of origin does come into the equasion at all? My guess is not to be honest and God forbid, if I had a recurrance I would not go for recon after a mast but thats whats right for me and maybe not suit others.
