	RE: July 28th Gathering/Walk at Oak Park Mall By Buttercup, 2 days ago Forum Forum
	Just found out this evening that I will be having major surgery on my Right Shoulder on 2/25. So sad that I will miss the Walk that Saturday. 🙁 Please keep me posted when the next one is scheduled ...

	@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 ...

	@creativewithcancer I'm not sure...Mine was peppered throughout both breasts like sand granules, so I didn't have an option for a lumpectomy.

	@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 ...

	@creativewithcancer I’m not that knowledgeable but I did learn a lot more from personal experience than I ever thought I would want to know. lol. Dr. Kahn is my oncologist and he’s wonderful! I would...

	@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 ...

	@ironmom5 Oh gosh, sounds difficult for sure! I am so grateful for you sharing. I will reach out!
	RE: Anyone Else with Bilateral Breast Cancer? By Buttercup, 4 days ago Forum Forum
	Sorry so late in hopping on this... BEEN A BUSY MONTH! I had breast cancer twice in the right breast, six years apart... 1992 and 1998. Was using KU, Dr William Jewell was my surgeon. The first tim...
	RE: Anyone Else with Bilateral Breast Cancer? By Ironmom5, 4 days 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 Lms7663, 4 days ago Forum Forum
	@creativewithcancer Before my cancer dx I was an RN for a breast cancer surgeon. Treatments are so amazing now. I know you’ll going to do great. If you’re comfortable sharing: Who is your oncologist...
	RE: Anyone Else with Bilateral Breast Cancer? By Creativewithcancer, 4 days 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, 4 days 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, 4 days ago Forum Forum
	@creativewithcancer I wanted the double mastectomy because I didn't want to worry about it later on. At first, they said they wouldn't remove healthy breast tissue. I said I WANT it removed. Then they...

	@slb Thanks so much! I will do that!
	RE: Anyone Else with Bilateral Breast Cancer? By SLB, 4 days ago Forum Forum
	Hi! I did not have cancer in both breasts but I did have DCIS & IDC in my right breast. I chose to have a double lumpectomy & also had reconstructive surgery on both sides. I was very happy wi...
	RE: Anyone Else with Bilateral Breast Cancer? By Creativewithcancer, 4 days ago Forum Forum
	@lms7663 It is DCIS in on and IDC in the other. They are ER and PR + and right now I have oncoplasty planned (lumpectomies with reduction). But I still need to meet with plastic surgeon and get the re...
	RE: Anyone Else with Bilateral Breast Cancer? By Creativewithcancer, 4 days ago Forum Forum
	@mirkat63 Did the doctors encourage the double mastectomy because of it being in both breasts? Or was that just what made sense for you for a different reason?
	RE: Anyone Else with Bilateral Breast Cancer? By Creativewithcancer, 4 days ago Forum Forum
	@iamasurvivor Thank you so much! I will do that as I begin to sort it all out.
