I've had multiple reccurrences after a double mastectomy in 2013. Just Onc. Drs. and Onc. nurses that were to casual or inexperienced! Scary & disturbing. I thought my B/C nighmare was over with the 2nd reccurence that I had to beg & plead for diagnostics & a breast surgeon ! My insurance "said" they did NOT have a breast cancer surgeon in Network! We had to threaten to get the government involved *this is Florida 🙁 Fortunately I moved to another state 2 yrs after that whereby that B/C surgeon said she was going to be "conservative" w/ the margins. I trusted her and wasn't exactly sure what she meant by that. I was now finding a sm lump deep in my armpit now by chance with a top medical system, this surgeon & team were appalled at my treatments and Drs' med decisions and neglect. I'm alive because of my own examinations and persistance and med team that for the most part (except for Radiation team--) cross their T's and dot their I's and check & recheck .
