I have LCIS, anyone else?

I was diagnosed with ALH in 2022, which was a year after having breast cancer in 2021, so I was already seeing an oncologist. I don’t believe I would have been seen by an oncologist otherwise since LCIS isn’t considered cancer, even though the word carcinoma is used. They should change the name. It feels like I’m a ticking time bomb, but I know that monitoring is the recommended treatment for it.

Due to other health reasons, I decided to not take Tamixafen. I saw my breast surgeon last week and he says my alternative is to have a double mastectomy. Has this been a recommendation to anyone else?
