Moving forward and feeling better
After getting the call from surgeon on Wed to say they didn't get everything out last week and falling to pieces, we had my surgeon appointment yesterday and can't believe how much better I am feelin...
Hi Airlie
I am not sure what to make of the grade 3 diagnosis. The tumours are grade 3 but I am not sure what stage my cancer is as that is different again. It was scary when the Registrar said the 3 mutifocal tumours were an aggressive type as the core biopsy's had said they weren't ( stage 2). Together the invasive tumours add up to 2.4mm so still relatively small and hopefully highly treatable. I am more concerned about the 3 involved lymph nodes. I know this is serious but I am not sure exactly how serious yet. Details about Chemo hasn't been discussed yet as I am having a mastectomy first. They gave me a choice and I opted for surgery as there may be some cancer left in my breast and I just want it all out.
Airlie so you know how many of your nodes are involved? I think that info is a game changer.
Take care xx Narelle
