Mastectomy

As none of the pills worked in shrinking the cancer it just kept growing, so went for a mastectomy which was successful. Because of my heart condition had to stay the night in hospital, I had no pain in fact apart from a scar and a drain I wouldn't have known the op had been done. I had to have 5 sessions of radiotherapy to make sure nothing was left apparently this is quite common with men as they don't have a lot of flesh.Got to go for a mamagram on the remaining breast in 12 months
