## Key points

- A biopsy during breast-reduction surgery revealed early triple-negative cancer.
- Perry chose a double mastectomy over chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
- She says she has been healthy since the 2022 operation.

## Summary

Linda Perry said doctors discovered triple-negative breast cancer by chance during a biopsy after a breast-reduction procedure, even though she felt healthy. She described the cancer as fast-growing and said the unexpected diagnosis led her to choose a double mastectomy.

Perry said she had avoided mammograms and other medical care, and had delayed the reduction because she feared anaesthesia. The cancer was found at an early stage; she underwent a double mastectomy in January 2022 and said she has been healthy since. She also recalled that her mother was ill at the time, and she might otherwise have attributed any symptoms to stress.
