4/23/24 First lumpectomy to remove PLCIS, they found a grade 1 invasive lobular carcinoma in the center and it was all removed but the surgery couldn't get clear margins. 3 things that I could do. 1) 20 min surgery to get a lymph node. 2) Lymph node and clear margins. 3. Mastectomy. Then 5/10/24 I ended up with Hematoma surgery from a popped stitch. (Don't sneeze) They got a lymph node (and it was neg.) Still no clear margins of PLCIS. 7/18/24 Surgery is scheduled for Mastectomy. ** And that's almost the end of my story. augmentation both breast. The Oncotype test came back insufficient amount to complete test. So in month I have surgery.
I am so sorry for such a challenging journey for you:(! Life throws us lots of "sneaky" curve balls at times, isn't it?!!
I am comforted by the fact that the lymph node that they took out was negative. Thank God! My prayers will be with you during your surgery on 7/18/24. Best wishes to you for a speedy and full recovery to a healthy and joyous future!
I'd like to extend a warm welcome to the group and express my deep empathy regarding your recent diagnosis of LCIS. I personally was diagnosed with LCIS in February 2023 and subsequently underwent a stereotactic biopsy of my right breast. I had a nurse present in the room to help ease my anxiety, and the doctor showed great compassion throughout the procedure. Following the biopsy results, the doctor informed me that I needed to proceed to phase 2 of the process, which involved a lumpectomy with wiring. I understand that this can be an intimidating process. I received the results of the lumpectomy on July 31, and thankfully, the condition did not progress to DCIS. While Tamoxifen was recommended, the doctor decided to monitor me first before prescribing it.
Hello! How are you coping with everything right now? My wife has just been told that she has Lobular Neoplasia and we are awaiting on the results of the 2nd biopsy.
