Thank you for your response. My question is did you have reconstructive surgery? Is chemo still necessary if mastectomy is done?
I am HER2+amplified. Still waiting to do MRI and PET scan.

See my comment below. For me, chemo was done first to shrink the tumor, then surgery. I had a double mastectomy with reconstruction and I am very happy.
