I was diagnosed with Pagets on the right nipple a couple of months ago and had my surgery carried out last week. I'd agree that a year seems quite some time and would suggest discussing it further with the doctors.
Suewah, seems like an awful long time to wait until next year?!? Hmmm??? Alarm bells. On the plus side, I like the way your surgeon has mentioned Paget's. Therefore, promoting vigilance and keeping you fully informed of what their thoughts/perceptions might be. Best of luck with this xxx
