Dee,
I had bilateral mastectomies Spet. 05. This was my second go round with BC; I recurred 2 years after a lumpectomy containg high grade DCIS.
My left breast was healthy, my right had small IDC and loads of DCIS (again). Stage 1, grade 2, node neg, Her+++.
I wish my DCIS had been tested for HER2Neu the first time; I would have done the bil mast. then.
As it is I've never looked bakc after my surgery last year. For me it was the wisest choice given that I don't have another breast to angst over. Those frequent mammos and the stress surrounding them was doing a number on my mind.
Search inside yourself and you will find the right answer for you.
Hugs, Deborah
