After my initial lumpectomy surgery, I was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer back in December of 2021. Since then we have gone through a full round of IVF to preserve our fertility and 5 months of chemotherapy. In this episode we share everything from 6 weeks post chemo to making the difficult decision regarding which surgery to have (mastectomy or lumpectomy) to the recovery process and finally the pathology results of surgery.
