I had lobular breast cancer in my right breast. It was aggressive. Then they found cancer in my left breast. Not lobular ductal. I had two lumpectomies but I needed chemo before I decided to get a double mastectomy. My decision was based on I would have needed radiation right after chemo. I made the correct decision. I am still here after 22 years. Radiation has so many complications.

Wow, 22 years, that is great. Did you take radiation, chemo and double mastectomy?

I only had lumpectomy surgery to remove two tumors in left breast & removal of 7 lymph nodes under left arm December 2021. I have Mammary invasive carcinoma with lobular features. For the last year and a half they have been following two small masses right breast and two in the left breast & tiny one under my left arm. I wish I had double mastectomy now I think I should I’m scared I have other health issue that risky for me to take any medication. I read you could have a Simple mastectomy leaves the second skin takes out all the Breast issue I have implants put in reconstructed years ago and I wish never done it that need removal too.I think the cutting through the muscle causes most pain. I think implants behind muscle I hope not
