Hi
I was diagnosed with dcis in 2023 I had a lumpectomy and they did it by taking my nipple off so I have no scarring on my breast. They then put the nipple back on. 2 months later I had lymph node surgery and they only had to remove one and it was clear. Then after the pathology they discovered I had a microscopic break in one of the walls so I had 20 treatments of radiation and I did not take an aromatase inhibitor I am 2 years out clear so far it took quite a while to get over the fatigue from the radiation I'm not going to lie it was a rough year I'm pretty much back to normal but I do monitor how busy I get because I can get fatigue easier. The choice to not take an aromatase inhibitor was okay by my oncologist because I already have osteoporosis with fractures in my spine. I was 64 when I had this discovered by my normal mammogram check up
