Hi Lisa
GET A NEW DOCTOR!! I agree. I was dx.'d in May of this year- 2.2cm, er/pr -, her2+, and 3 positive nodes. I chose to have a double mast. with implants. Glad I made the decision- and by the way- my hubby didn't mind - when your fighting for your life, its amazing what doesn't matter anymore. All I know is that I have 3 beautiful little boys that I want to be here for.
This is the hardest time. It gets easier. If you need someone to talk to, I 'm here.
Love, Kelly
