Just diagnosed, in treatment, or finished treatment for DCIS.
Hello! I am 47, I was diagnosed with DCIS (grade 2) last week. My second mammogram confirmed a small (3mm) spot near my nipple. I met with my oncologist on Thursday for my first appointment with him, pretty uneventful since I haven't had my MRI yet. I am scheduled this Thursday for my MRI and then meet with the breast…
I’m 1 week post mastectomy and just received results of focal duct carcinoma in situ, intermediate nuclear grade without necrosis. I’m low key freaking out right now and would like any information that someone could provide. I opted for the mastectomy after I had a lumpectomy and mammogram that stated I have benign…
Tomorrow I will undergo a partial mastectomy not really nervous but I am wondering how long it will be before I make a good recovery? Not sure what to expect in the next few weeks.
I was diagnosis with DCIS grade 1 stage 0. I was given the treatment options. I decided to get a second opinion. My second opinion clinic requested the slides from my biopsy and that pathologist determined, I didn’t have DCIS. Has anyone ever experienced this?
Just got my final pathology report after BMX, still pure DCIS. My Surgeon said no chemo, no radiotherapy and no tamoxifen. After reading through the whole report, there is one additional comment I don't quite understand: "In one block, at the edge of the tissue and partially within a thick walled vessel, there is a group…
I am really struggling to make a decision about the best path forward, so I've come to learn from all of you.

I had a 1.2cm, grade 3 DCIS with…

Hi All. I am 41years old. When I was in my 20's I was diagnosed with PCOS. In 2023 I experienced a slight tingle in my right breast I knew was hormonal, but to appease my nagging husband, I went and was seen by my GP. She agreed that it was most likely a blocked milk duct as there were no other abnormal signs. I check…
Have been taking letrozole for about 4 months after DCIS (w/clear margins), and preventative radiation treatment. Seem to be free of noticeable side effects except it appears to cause a cough and a 'drippy' feeling in the back of my throat. I confirmed this by going off it for 2 weeks, when these symptoms disappeared. Has…
