Guest guest Posted August 11, 2005 Report Share Posted August 11, 2005 Robin I had 3 lumpectomies before I had the cancer lumperctomy. So I actually had 4 lumpectomies. The last being the only one with cancer. My first one I was 18, the next one I was 22, the third one I was 40 something, the forth one I was 48.

Guest guest Posted August 11, 2005 Report Share Posted August 11, 2005 Robin, I opted for a mastectomy so can't help you out. I will keep you in my prayers.

I also declined chemo but did havesurgery and radiation each time. >>Thanks for replying, Debra. I have a new wrinkletoday--my rad onc isn't comfortable starting me onrads because the pathology report doesn't state "clearmargins." My surgeon insists she got it all with the2nd lumpectomy, but the path guy insists there couldbe something else on the other side of the margin.Has anyone had 3 lumpectomies? My onc says my breastis in great shape and this shouldn't effect it thatmuch. I am just feeling so crushed because I thoughtthe surgery part was behind me.Thanks,Robin __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
