Thanks for posting! I wonder how many times we get a more advanced diagnosis when a mastectomy is performed? I suppose I wouldn't remove a healthy breast if I knew it were healthy either- but I was told that my risk is 35% is for either breast given my two diseases (ductal and lobular). I wonder how many women have both ductal and lobular at the same time... I think it's great that we can post personal experiences because it helps to fill in the blanks. Of course, only a special population would sign up to do this too, so we don't know the full story but it's better than nothing!

Thanks for the hug, triciaot!
