Hi Emma,

I understand how worrying this is for you. I did not have DCIS, but Mucinous cancer, with some fibrocytic changes noted in the background. I had a lumpectomy in 2010 and took Tamoxifen, but discovered a lump in my other breast almost six months later. My surgeon was pretty sure that this was cancerous, but fortunately a biopsy proved that it was benign. Almost a year to the day of my first surgery, I discovered a another lump in my original breast, but this time I wasn't so lucky. I had a second primary cancer of the same type and stage. In 2011, I had a double mastectomy, as my surgeon felt that the lump in my other breast was pre-cancerous. I followed treatment with Letrozole for 6½ years. 

I guess that my experience just goes to show that it can go either way. That was all nearly 14 years ago now and I still lead a busy and fulfilling life. You have already been through a lot with your breast surgery and hysterectomy and I sincerely hope that nothing untoward is found.

Please keep in touch and let us know how you get on next Wednesday. We are always here for you.

Kind regards,

Jolamine xx
