    Update
    Went to see the surgeon and he would like for me to go see a plastic surgeon he might have to do skin graf. Because of haveing Radiation done on that side. It is cancer back in the scar and he is going to clean things up and make it right. See the plastice surgeon on Dec 3rd. To see what he has to say about things. This was not what I wanted to do during Christmas but it has got to be done. Happy Holidays to all. Will keep udating. Thanks to everyone.

    Went to see the plastic surgeon and he said that he either do a skin graf or move some muscle. But will not know what kind until they get into surgery. But that date has not been set up yet. He said possible be off from work 3-6 weeks. I told hime that i hope it was soon cause of the nagging pain on the left side. Hopefully the surgeon will call this week with a date. Thanks everyone.

The plastic surgeon still does not know what he will do until the surgery he will either do a skin graf or muscle move from the back. Will try to keep everyone updated when i can.

    My best wishes for a successful surgery. Though not good that it is a recurrence, it is great that they caught it and are taking care of it now. I hope you can have a joyful holiday season and that the new year will be a fresh, new start. Best,

    Mimi

    confused
    I am do to have surgery this coming Tues on the left side to get the cancer again there. I have asked both doctor what they thought about removing the right breast since I have had cancer in it 5 yrs ago. I know the doctor will be watching me like a hawk for a long time. They agree with me that it would be a good thing to do. It sound like I am having cold feet about this. But I am confused what does everyone think.

    Please help me with this.

    I would just do it...
    If the doctor says it's a good idea then I would say take it all. That will give you less to worry about in the future. If you don't you'll be worried every single day of your life. (at least I would be)

    BUT, everyone must live with their own decision.
