what does all this mean
Hi everyone Probably like you all, never in a million years did I think I would hear the “c” word yet here I am! Such a scary place. I had a lumpectomy last week and removal of sentinel lymph node...

Hi @HunnyB. My diagnosis was similar but different. Lol confusing I know. Mine was er+ pr+ Her2- no nodes and clear margins. It was also Grade 3 Stage 1. I was offered chemo but there was also not a huge benefit over 10 years so I opted out. I had 20 radiation zaps instead. Depending on your particular situation, lumpectomy and rads is seen as gold standard these days.
But it's an individual choice and you'll find many ladies decide to throw everything at it and undergo chemo as well. Best of luck to you.
