Saw the surgeon yesterday. She pretty much insisted on doing a lumpectomy. The overall opinion at the cancer conference was that my general health was not good enough to do a mastectomy. She will also do a sentinel node. I will have some type of intense radiation device implanted a few days after surgery. Five days with that.
We all know that things could change after the pathology reports come in so I will keep you posted.
