Micropapillary

Hello everyone,
I was diagnosed with invasive micropapillary breast cancer 2 weeks ago. I only had an 8 mm tumour but unfortunately 1.5mm micrometastisis was found in my sentinal node.
I had a bilateral mastectomy and the offending node removed.
In the UK 1.5 mm micrometastisis is regarded as a nil read and no further treatment necessary.
I have been told here because it’s a rare cancer (micropapillary) I must have chemo and radiotherapy.
I am in a dilemma as I feel as if I am being rail roaded in the medical machine. I know the doctors are good people. But I just think the treatment is so harsh.
I am scared of the long term side effects of chemo and radiation as I am a natural health rep and in my industry have had many negative opinions of this and the big Pharma machine.
That said I want to live and don’t trust naturopaths either as unsure if there is enough evidence to put my life in their hands.
My head is about to explode!
I’ve always led a healthy lifestyle and feel a loser if I talk the talk and don’t walk the walk.
Has anyone out there had micropapillary and cured it naturally? 
Im dreading Chemo side effects
