Jane Fallon Says Second Breast Cancer Surgery Secured Clear Margins

Her team now advises against radiation, leaving hormone therapy or watchful waiting.

Overview

  • Fallon reported Thursday that her second operation achieved clear margins and that a small precancerous area did not warrant another procedure.
  • She and her oncologist concluded radiation would likely do more harm than good in her case based on the expected benefit.
  • She is weighing hormone therapy such as Tamoxifen against watchful waiting and says there is no rush to decide because of potential side effects.
  • Her cancer was caught early on a routine mammogram, which often improves outcomes, and doctors have described her prognosis as excellent.
  • She also denounced a fake obituary and AI-generated hospital images that claimed she had died, while supporters continued to send well-wishes on social media.
