Guest guest Posted December 15, 2003 Report Share Posted December 15, 2003 Hello. My name is Dayna. I was recently (Dec 4) diagnosed with DCIS breast cancer. I have been extensively gathering as much information about the type of cancer I have. However, I would like to hear from others who are experiencing or have experienced the same emotions I am. I am scheduled for a mastectomy on January 15. I have opted for a mastectomy because the cancer is located directly behind my nipple and a lumpectomy would take so much tissue that my breast would have a large concave center. I am considering a bilateral because of the likelihood of the cancer developing in my right breast. This is all very new to me. I feel I am processing things as well as can be expected. I would like some feed back on your experiences. I am looking forward to getting to know you and your stories. We have an unusual kinship in our diagnosis. I will continue to keep you in my prayers as I learn more from you. Dayna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
