@cherlea Hi 🙂 Am I understanding this correctly.....you had a double mastectomy and have had cancer come back?
@cherlea - Welcome to Mayo Connect. I am so glad that you found us. After ten years my lung cancer came back and I felt the same way you do - depressed, and very afraid. I naively thought that I was in the clear. Just humbled me and brought me down from my high horse. I am very glad that you reached out to us, and I am very very glad that you are being retested. Please keep me informed!
