Hi All 
thank you so much for the overwhelming response, SoldierCrab thankyou for all the information,
traveltex thankyou also when I was with the doctors a lot of information went over my head, I have rather a large lump/cancer on my right breast and affected most of my nodes, they called it invasive, aggressive and some other things,
its a stage 3 bordering 4 something like that, also its hormone based if that means anything, the plan is to do the chemo first to try and reduce the size of the cancer and the nodes so they can operate, i'm having the treatment at the Gold Coast University Hospital
