Hello, I was diagnosed last year with PLCIS in my left breast 45mm originally it was misdiagnosed as LCIS but after it grew very large and I had further biopsies I eventually got the diagnosis.

As mine was such a large tumour I had a Theraputic Mamoplasty. (Surgery with reconstruction and a reduction in my right breast for symmetry) I then had a further surgery 2 months later as the margins were not clear, but I was given the all clear after surgery number 2 and underwent 3 weeks of Radiotherapy. My treatment finished in November 23 and I’m doing great, recovery had gone well, I’m back doing fitness and strength training and feeling overall really good.  

so I hope this gives you a bit of hope that there is light at the end of the tunnel and you’ll be back to yourself in no time  

good luck with your recovery.

Hi, I have had my lumpectomy now and  results came back with clear margins. I feel really fortunate as I have heard of so many woman having to do go through more surgeries. I have an appointment with the oncologist about radiotherapy in June and hoping for just 5 sessions . Can I ask if you think it is beneficial to have an MRI? As I am thinking I might get a private one for piece of mind . X 

Oh I’m so glad the lumpectomy went well and you’re on the road to recovery.

i did also have an MRI before my surgery to make sure it had not spread to any other area. Which luckily it hadn’t.

They do however do a CT scan at your pre appointment for your Radiotherapy to confirm the area they will concentrate on. You also get your tattoo markers at this appointment. 

good luck and hopefully all goes well for you
