Anyone had a prophylactic mastectomy for ADH diagnosis?

Recently diagnosed. Considering DMX. If I do it what monitoring needs to be done? Do I still need hormone therapy?

In reply to @maureenmckean "Just a lumpectomy after microcalcifications we’re seen and biopsy revealed ADH. They didn’t find anymore ADH..." + (show)

My diagnosis came in March . Had surgery . And was put on Tamoxifen. Had to stop because of extreme side effects. This was to remove estrogen . I’m 68 I’m on mammograms scheduled twice a year . I wish there was more information and someone to talk to me and clarify . I’ve had five biopsies on one side and a lumpectomy on the other . So full of anxiety over this. As mother and sister had breast cancer. Thinking of you and letting you know you are not alone ..
