Just diagnosed, in treatment, or finished treatment for LCIS.
This question is posed to anyone out there. I posed this question -- Are you aware of anyone with LCIS who got Stage 4 Breast Cancer? -- to my breast surgeon.

I'm here because I am scared and worried and surprised by this news. I'm wondering what I do now and what treatments I'm looking at now? I keep telling myself I don't have…
