MRI after 3D Mammogram - dense breast tissue

I had a unilateral mastectomy in February’22 and my ONCOTYPE suggested that chemo was not a benefit in my case. Breast surgeons did not recommend radiation ( it’s a long story) so I am taking Aromatase for 5-10 years . Tolerating well for the stuff one can observe. Will do a DEXA in one year ( verses 2 ) to get an early handle on bone mineral density. Of course insurance will only pay every 2 years … IMO an oz. prevention is worth a pound of cure !

I’m recovering well so far 🌸

@anjalima would you mind sharing about your experience with unilateral surgery? I think my choice is to go with mastectomy, on the left side. I am curious why your doctor said no to radiation. How was your healing after the surgery?
