Hi AnnieMichelle_123
I was diagnosed last year, and like you, my diagnosis was early breast cancer and subsequent surgery and testing revealed no spread to lymph nodes. I had to have a mastectomy and am on hormone blockers but otherwise no other treatment.
Sometimes when reading of the stories of others who are worse off than me in this forum, I have found myself feeling guilty about being stressed, sad and overwhelmed when my prognosis is so positive.

Very best wishes for your surgery and treatment.
