Deciding on radiation or not

I shall be thinking of you and wishing you good news on the 30th! That is the day I'll be having my MRI having been diagnosed with DCIS Grade 3. The surgeon wants to see the extent of the calcifications before deciding whether lumpectomy or mastectomy (to follow soon after) would be the way to go.
I am very anxious, but knowing that you and so many others are ahead of me and forging ahead is very heartening. I don't want to have radiation and hormone therapy either! Best, best, best wishes and I promise to think of you on Monday and not just of myself.

Swirl, I will think of you also! I remember how scared I was getting my MRI. And I went afterwards and met my sister for breakfast. As it turned out it was good news on the MRI a bit smaller than originally thought so hopefully this will be your outcome as well!!!
