@windyshores @rida In the above post I believe she already answered this, and if I read it correctly she had; mastectomy, then anastrazole, then lumpectomy in scar tissue, then the chemo and radiation.
“I had a mastectomy the first time. The 2% risk was from Oncotyoe Dx. Anastrozole was prescribed and I took it with few side effects. Nine months later I felt a small lump at end of incision. Thought it was scar tissue but biopsy confirmed cancer. Had lumpectomy and then surgeon said to do chemo and radiation, no questions asked.”
There are always going to be exceptions and cancer can be an unpredictable thing, even by the most advanced testing.
Did I get all of this right @mugs24cancer ?

@autieoakley that answer came after I asked the questions 🙂

I am still not clear on whether a second cancer in the same site, like this, can be a different cancer or is a recurrence of the original one. Not important.
