Stage 2/ grade 2 - is chemo required?
Hi all. I'm new here and just had my lumpectomy on 16/1/23. Reports mentioned 40mm tumour on right breast. Re-excision is required to obtain a clear margin and one lymph node is involved (has cancer)...

Hi there @Annalyn...as mentioned above, trust your medical team and remember, chemo is not pleasant, but then neither is cancer. The fact that it is already in at least one node, shows its intention to travel. It already has its passport ready and bags packed and you would want to knock it off before it boards a plane to travel to some exotic location such as your lungs, liver, bones or brain. Your team would not recommend it if it was not necessary. Good luck with your treatment...Ally.
