@lvp1122 hello, and welcome to connect.
Only you can decide if this is right for you, but it sounds like a reasonable plan. I know there has probably been some anxiety about it, I hope you can connect with other members here who have had a similar diagnosis.
How are you feeling about it?

Thank you, I am feeling at peace and need to get out of my head and have faith in the great physician who knows all.
I like hearing others experiences and thought not necessarily treatment suggestions.

I may be wrong, but I thought DCIS was a wait and watch thing, with extra testing and clinical breast exams, as its 0 stage?
So sorry you are experiencing this.

phillypeach515, omg, I am speechless. Praying for both of our journeys. Thank you so much for sharing. God cover this chaper in our lives 🙏🏽💜
