Hi - i was diagnosed with DCIS at the end of Sept ans had a lumpectomy on 16.10.13. Thinking this would be the end of it the results showed that part of the cancer was invasive and i am going back for a biopsy on lymph node on 25th november. I am dreading the results. I find it difficult to talk to family and partner inthe fear of upsetting them
