Hey Debbie:
Thanks for your opinions. I must admit that DCIS is an area that I am not very familiar with. I guess I assumed that after three lumpectomies that it probably wasn't DCIS after all, and from what you are saying, it very well could be. That makes a lot more sense.
I agree that in some cases a second opinion isn't a bad idea but I am worried that people will shop for a doctor that will be less aggressive and, in the end, may endanger their lives.
