Hi there, I have just joined the network. I was diagnosed last week with grade 2 invasive lobular carcinoma. I am 47 and have 2 daughters, aged 12 and 15. My family and I are still reeling from the shock. I have been to see a specialist who has booked me in for a lumpectomy on 7 November. I am so worried that the sentinal nodes will show ;positive yet the ultrasound scan showed that there was no sign of 'axillary 'lymphadenopathy'. I would imagine that no one can confirm that until they take the nodes away. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I never thought I would be here on this website asking for advice. My life has completely changed in this last week. I need to talk with people who are going through or have already gone through these first few weeks of the realisation that they have breast cancer.
