	@creativewithcancer I agree! I have been with Dr Khan for a year now, he is wonderful! As is Stephanie Lefever and Oanh in his office. (Truly they all are but these are the three I see the most). If ...
	RE: Anyone Else with Bilateral Breast Cancer? By momoftwo, 2 weeks ago Forum Forum
	@creativewithcancer I'm not sure...Mine was peppered throughout both breasts like sand granules, so I didn't have an option for a lumpectomy.
	RE: Anyone Else with Bilateral Breast Cancer? By momoftwo, 2 weeks ago Forum Forum
	@creativewithcancer I have two daughters also. My genetic testing came back negative for BRACA so I was relieved. Yes, I'd suggest you message the nurse for the results. Sometimes things fall through ...

	RE: Anyone Else with Bilateral Breast Cancer? By Creativewithcancer, 2 weeks ago Forum Forum
	@lms7663 Wow! Amazing you are so knowledgeable. The DCIS is stage 0 and the IDC is stage 1 and grade 1. So, that's all good news. I'm hoping the genetic testing comes back OK. It is HER2-. I'm making ...

	RE: Anyone Else with Bilateral Breast Cancer? By Ironmom5, 2 weeks ago Forum Forum
	I had lobular on the left and IDC on the right. They did not discover the lobular cancer until my bilateral mastectomy. It just looked like “salt on the screen.” I had 20 rounds of chemo and 28 rounds...

	RE: Anyone Else with Bilateral Breast Cancer? By Creativewithcancer, 2 weeks ago Forum Forum
	@mirkat63 Also, they told me the chances of recurrance are the same between the two surgeries -- is that not correct?
	RE: Anyone Else with Bilateral Breast Cancer? By Creativewithcancer, 2 weeks ago Forum Forum
	@mirkat63 They didn't and I forgot to ask. Maybe I'll message the nurse? I do know the chances are somewhat low that genetics will be involved but I think I'll feel more settled once I hear about that...
	RE: Anyone Else with Bilateral Breast Cancer? By momoftwo, 2 weeks ago Forum Forum
