Hi Sister :) all I know is it hasn't spread to bones or any where else, so i have been told.
I did ask surgeon he said 3 and masectomy but now oncologist said 2 to 3 , due to the size and I'm triple negative. He has doubts the second lesion is non malignant.
I am completly ignorant because everyone's situation is different and their treatment is in different orders.
Oddly it seems that it is the first question people ask me all the time and I truly don't know?
I sort of get the impression it will depend on if the lymph nodes have cancer and I dont know when that happens.
Did you find out post surgery?
I'm just concentrating on one visit at a time.
One chemo down, next is the port on Monday, then rebiopsy the second lesion again on Thursday. Oncologist wants it done again, he said because of the triple negative result. My head was literally in another world by then far far
Away....
Then I finally have two weeks break from hospital before second chemo cycle.
I am better dealing with small chunks rather than the big picture.
Nothing has been as bad as I expected so far, the frustration is only that the appointnents never start on time!
So hurry up and wait fits my experience perfectly.
The upside is I get to talk to lots of lovely ladies at various stages on the journey. Made some good friends already...seen everyones ports etc they are all positive ladies regardless of the Stage.
