DCI grade 2 struggling with the best reconstruction options Therapeutic Mammoplasty or Mastectomy +r

Hi 

I new to this site, l was told 2weeks ago l have DCI grade 2 33mm Tumor Left UIQ and they need to operate. They have discussed that l may be suitable for a Therapeutic Mammoplasty  and radiotherapy if the 2nd area in my breast comes back clear from vacuum biopsy l had last week. or Mastectomy with reconstruction.

This is all so scary, first coming to terms with having cancer without thinking about the surgery and making the best choice with the best results. I know my health is more important than how l look.

Has anyone else had Therapeutic Mammoplasty and how was the results? , l have discussed having both breasts done at the same time but have read that having radiotherapy after can make the breast smaller still.

If l have a Mastectomy what is the best option for reconstruction an implant or flap.

H Linda, sorry you find yourself here.  I’m awaiting delayed recon so I can’t help but if you copy and paste your post on the “going through treatment>surgery” thread on this from you’re more likely to get others chatting there.  Sending hugs. Xxx

Thanks you Mai7
I’ve just posted there. It’s just such a big decision.
Good luck with your recon.
Big hugs xx
