The two tumors are seperate but close enough that they would have been taken out anyway in the margins if they wouldn't have seen it in the ultrasound. So now they will do a margin outside of that one. I'm still young only 48 ( young at heart anyways) and I'm single (have a boyfriend but no marriage again in sight) so that's why I was leaning towards the lumptectomy with herceptin of course and the hope and prayer of being one of the 52% with no reoccurance. I'm small chested to begin with. My mother however did have a double mascectomy but that was about 20 years ago. She died from breast cancer 15 yrs. ago. I really wish I would have kept more in tune with what kind she had and had all that info now. She had it in her lymph nodes I do remember and she went through radiation and chemo. Hindsight now! Thank you for responding to me, I'm glad I found the Her2 group I've been tryin to read everything everybody is sayin and tryin to keep on top of this. Thanks again for your help and information.
