I just had lumpectomy yesterday! Yea! It’s a relief but waiting for follow up in 2 weeks. Mine is Stage 0 grade 3. I am willing to do radiation but will not do the drugs. I’m not going to ruin my quality of life for it. I have a friend who is feeling the effects of tamoxifen 20 yrs later. If I have a recurrence, I’ll deal with it then.

I hope it all comes back good and you can do the radiation and move on! 🤞The drugs sound pretty horrible. I am worried about being hormone negative. The thought of Chemo terrifies me honestly as I’ve watched friends go through it.
