Guest guest Posted April 21, 2005 Report Share Posted April 21, 2005 I was diagnosed with DCIS Stage 0 ten weeks ago. I had two lumpectomies in order to get clean margins. There was one malignant cell remaining so my breast surgeon referred me to a radiation oncologist for further treatment. Today I had my simulation treatment. It was very uncomfortable holding onto a handle on top of the machine for fifteen minutes. Also I was upset that my breast was marked with tattoos. I'm feeling a little overwhelmed by the whole experience. Too many people, too many procedures, indecision, uncertainty. Can anyone in my situation relate? Looking forward to responses from my post.--- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
