Hi lilging, I too have been told too to make life changing decisions quite a few times. Chemo or not,.....reconstruction or not....... radiotherapy or further surgery(that's a decision still to be made) In my opinion they are the professionals and need to make these decisions with the rest of the team and guide us along the same lines. If we choose not to follow then that is our decision,.....one that we are happy making. I personally found the decision making approach overwhelming and a tad unfair....but ignore my rant ha ha. I fully understand your dilemma. I took the decision to have chemo and then they came back to me and advised it anyway so for me it was a no brainer. Of course every situation is different but I would ring back and ask to discuss the matter further with your breast care nurse.. It's amazing how talking things though helps you make to a decision without realizing it. Good luck Janey xxxxxxxxx
