Hi Cheryl,
Sorry to hear about your recurrence. I have a similar story - lesion found near mastectomy scar while finishing my last month of herceptin. Before my final pathology report, my onc. recommended radiation only. But by the time I had my wide excision I had another spot that was punch biopsied. Pathology reported it as recurrent IDC carcinoma in dermal lymphatic. That meant it was in the skin, yet could have travelled in the lymph system. My second opinion has recommended TCH then radiation...basically going thru chemo all over. I'm er/pr, so chemo is my only option.
I agree a 2nd opinion would be good. Let us know how it goes.
