@anatomary I had a lumpectomy in 2001 and had to return for more circumference from very small tumor. Now, many years later having discovered lump that was not biopsied (“nothing to worry about about”)—until 1-1/2 years later when I was immediately told ILC. I’m scheduled for limping March following 9 months on AI’s. Having several side effects and have decided I just want a mastectomy and get it over with. Very tiring and psychologically draining me. I know it doesn’t necessarily end there but honestly at this point I’m more concerned about all the side effects over the cancer. Wishing you success in your journey.
