Hubby's reaction
Mine didn't comfort me at all, was reluctant to go to the doctor with me, and has said he doesn't want to see my breasts after my
lumpectomy
surgery. Both of our families have been hit super hard with major health issues just since March, so I know that could have something to do with it.

Lumpectomy surgery went well. Suggestions for exercises?
I had the
lumpectomy
yesterday and the surgeon said that she didn't see any surprises, which is great news so far. Pathology reports come next week, and I am hoping for clean margins and a non-affected lymph node. Right now, I'm sore. I'm supposed to start the exercises.

Having a Savy Scout implanted today
I am about to have a Savy Scout implanted in preparation for my
lumpectomy
on 12/4. It is supposed to limit the amount of healthy tissue that is taken out during surgery. It works, a bit, like the scanners in the grocery store.

How does radiation affect You?
I have stage 1 IDC/DCIS bc and will be getting a
lumpectomy
and radiation. I’m curious how the radiation will affect me, and how it will actually affect my breast, sensations, feel, etc. Would love to hear from you and Your experiences ! Thanks.

Lobectomy pain

Stage 1a triple negative breast cancer
I had a
lumpectomy
with sentinel lymph node removal. It turned out to be stage 1a triple negative breast cancer. The tumor was very tiny and my lymph nodes were clear. I also had 20 rounds of radiation treatment. My oncologist told me I didn't need chemotherapy as my type of cancer rarely returns.

Telling young kids the news
Newly diagnosed and surgery is Thursday (
lumpectomy
). I told my sensitive, anxious 7 year old niece the news today and she really panicked. I told her in a way that a social worker suggested (evidence based). I wonder if anyone else has young ones in their life.

Further testing
Lumpectomy
and radiation therapy. Nothing in the lymph. We have now found a 4.3cm cyst/lump thing in one of my adrenal glands. It's not presenting like anything they recognise so I'm now off to a specialist oncology team for more testing and removal. Has anyone else had something like this?

Anastrazole Side Effects Similar to Parathyroid Issues
After having a
lumpectomy
, I was prescribed Anastrozole in January 2019 but had some unpleasant side effects (I thought). Also I had a Dexa scan which showed the beginnings of osteoporosis.

Mammogram or not?
(History of breast cancer, the kind that contained itself, forget the terminology,
lumpectomy
, and no cancer for three years.) Thank you.

Just finished radiotherapy but feel overwhelmed
Lymph node removal showed no spread, so
lumpectomy
and radiotherapy, along with taking Tamoxifen (oncotype result 17, so no chemo). Haven't felt too bad physically, apart from severe cording following surgery, which is now almost cleared up and finished my radiotherapy yesterday.

Reclast infusion
Having recently had a
lumpectomy
for breast cancer, my oncologist is putting me on aromasen. Because aromasen causes bone deterioration, it is also necessary to have reclast infusions. Has anyone any experience with these drugs? Thanks Friends!! Ann Marie

Lump
Hi had
lumpectomy
followed by 5 days of radiotherapy because I am at high risk from covid 19 to spend as little time out as possible higher doses of radiotherapy was given so basically 15 day treatment in 5.

Tamoxifen Side Effects
I've been on Tamoxifen for about 5 months now after a
lumpectomy
and radiation therapy for a Grade 1 Invasive Ductal Carcinoma hormone positive and Her2. And I have a few questions around side effects. The side effects have caught up with me.

Scheduled for SBRT
Five years ago I had a
lumpectomy
for breast cancer and while setting me up for follow up radiation they discovered a mass in my lung which turned out to be adenocarcinoma. Three months after the
lumpectomy
, I had a left upper lobectomy. Now a new mass is in that same lung.

Newcomer - Frederica
I had a
lumpectomy
and changed my lifestyle. I had been over 3 years with no problems. In October of 2019 I started to have pain and swelling in my right breast. I was diagnosed with lymphedema but the swelling kept getting worse and spread into my chest, neck and face.
