@sandramj hi , hope you are feeling less emotional today after your recent diagnosis. At the beginning it is such a roller coaster because you have so many tests and so much to digest. I felt the same way with the mammogram, ultrasound, heart test, ct scan, bone scan all happening so quickly. My cancer was 100% estrogen driven and the cancer was found in the sentinel node so when I had my mastectomy they also took out 15 lymph nodes. Had 6 months chemo and 6 weeks Radistion daily . It really does feel like a whirlwind but once your emotions settle you will get that fight in you. There is so much improvement happening for the cure of breast cancer now. It doesn't feel like it right now for you and you are going through all those normal emotional feelings. Gosh I felt the same. The C word absolutely freaked me out. I am 4 years now and although I have those negative feelings and worry creeping into my thoughts usually at 3 am I try to be positive. You are doing so well stay strong.
hugs to you
