thanks for the love!
HI, Thanks all of you so very much for your empathy,kindness and knowledge.
My breast surgeon suspects micro invasion because of the extensive nature and size of the tumor. Should I ask for a port at the time of the surgery if invasion if found? I will push for a detailed look at tissue for invasion.Has anyone had single mastectomy only to be left feeling uncomfortably unbalanced? Did the plastic Dr. have difficulty matching the breast with onesided reconstruction? Is Herception with no invasion available in trials only? Do you think I will need radiation? Why would they reconstruct now if I might need rad. later? I am so confused but did not want to delay surgery since I was diag. 9/22. The plastics Dr was very hard to arrange because my ins. co. pays so little towards the reconstruction and the plastics guys are used to being paid all the money for cosmetic procedures. This really delayed the surgery. The DCIS has spreds into multiple quads making mastectomy the option. Any opinions or thoughts are appreciated. Thanks.
