Just diagnosed, in treatment, or finished treatment for DCIS.
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 am still waiting on genetic testing results to come through, but have no reason to believe that there will be anything of significance. If there is, I will pivot accordingly. I had a 1.2cm, grade 3 DCIS with…
I want to let all of you know that have had a BioZorb implanted during your breast cancer surgery that the FDA has recently made a Class 1 Recall on the device.

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…
I am new to this site and wonder if what I'm experiencing is normal. I had DMX with immediate reconstruction with tissue expanders on December 20th. My PS filled the expanders with air during the surgery, then on January 2 I had air exchange and saline fill of 250cc. I am 4'11 and going for a full B size. Anyway, I'm…
Hi all, this is my first time posting here and am so grateful that this forum exists. My wife has had an incredibly stressful few months to say the least. In September she went in for her yearly mammogram and a suspicious area was identified in her right breast. She subsequently had an ultrasound, biopsies and MRI and was…
