dcis back

is there anyone out there like me who has had a lumpectomy for dcis and radiotherapy and then a few years finds out it has returned.

  • Hi Mell

    Sorry that your DCIS has returned. I'm hoping that by responding to your post it will go back to the top of the list and someone with a similar experience will reply to you.

    What are the next steps for you Mell? There are others here who have had a recurrence of cancer who will relate to how you are feeling now.

    Welcome to Cancer Chat,

    Best wishes

  • had my mascetomy and immediate reconstruction 12 days ago and am waiting on results of everything. delay on results at hospital! sentinel node biopsy not possible due to previous lumpectomy cutting through pathways. so really hoping no invasive found when all the results come back and it's the DCIS that has returned only! results of recon looking OK. still painful and stiff and swollen but nipple looks intact!
