Just diagnosed, in treatment, or finished treatment for DCIS.
has anyone refused taking hormones after surgery and radiation with dcis nuclear grade 3
The Dr. gave me the choice lumpectomy or mastectomy. As she said it was caught early and still inside the duct I picked lumpectomy.

Hi I had DCIS surgery to remove crystallised area about size of stock cube. Am resting and started the physio. I am keen to get back to walking and lower body strengthening. Any advice about when it would be safe to do so. Thanks very much. I am so grateful to be in this group
Hello Ladies, My Onc ordered Aromasin today after being in Arimidex for several months. My finger joints were swelling and painful, as is my knee and pelvis when I walk.

I have been given an array of treatment recs, but honestly leaning towards B mastectomy. Any others that have chosen this route? This…

I have DCIS grade 3 and found out today that genetic testing for 70 mutations was negative. I have lumpectomy planned for August 7 and will have SCOUT procedure…
