Hi my name is jan I am 46 years old, I was diagnosed with dcis in may 2018 I was told I would need an operation to move the calcifications after surgery I had to wait for my results I was told in most cases I might need to go back to theatre for some more to be taken as they like a clear margin. When returning to hospital for my results I was hit with the news as it was best to have a mastectomy I was in total shock on the 5th July I had my mastectomy and I had a expander put in at the same time as I was having a reconstruction all went well and I couldn’t believe I had no pain just waiting now till I get the expander out and have my implant in. Has anyone else experienced the same?
