Hi @Halla, I was diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer in 2016. The tumour was around 16 mm and was 60% NST & 40% mucinous carcinoma. Initially I had a lumpectomy but didn’t get clear margins so had a mastectomy where it was found I had 40mm of lymphatic vascular invasion & also 3 lymph nodes with cancer. Also they found a satellite tumour in the breast. I was ER/PR positive. It was 2 weeks between lumpectomy & mastectomy with scans in between & then 5 weeks later started chemo. Mucinous carcinoma is rare but is treated the same as other cancers. You had clear nodes which is great and whilst the waiting seems to be long it is most likely normal but I would give them a ring to make sure they received the referral.
