MyCancerPlan Journeys
In 2016, I underwent a lumpectomy after a suspicious finding in my annual mammogram. After surgery and follow-up treatment, I hoped the worst was behind me. However, eight years later, another lump appeared on the same side. My surgeon recommended a double mastectomy, which was terrifying to hear. Unsure of what to do, I turned to MyCancerPlan.
Their process guided me through gathering and organizing crucial information, seeking expert opinions, and undergoing necessary additional tests, including molecular testing on my biopsy. I discovered that my cancer could be effectively treated with a lumpectomy by an expert breast surgeon. Though initially concerned about costs, MyCancerPlan helped me find an in-network expert breast surgeon nearby. My surgery lasted an hour, and I returned home the same night. Now on the road to recovery, I realize the importance of informed decision-making and regular screenings. If I can navigate this journey, so can you.
