Hi Erin,
I am so sorry to hear that you have joined us, I was diagnosed on 16 April 2012, right Mastectomy- Grade 3, ER and PR+, Her2-, the BC was found in my sentinal node and like you I had one internal mammary node involved. I have just completed my treatment, which was Chemo and radiation and am now on Tamoxifen for the next 7 years at least! I was 37 wehen diagnosed with three young children and remember thinking how unfair this all is. I am paranoid like you are and have been told the same by my specialists, 'we don't scan until there are symptoms'. I have learnt a great deal about trust throughout this journey, trust in my body, my family and my medical team. I am here to chat if you ever need.
