Lymph nodes

hi all, just got my results from the lymph node clearance, had 21 out 20 had active cancer in them after chemo and 1 was clear not quite what we expected has anyone else had this result and how are you doing??  Little bit stressed about it.

  • Treatment team say next it's radiation for 6 weeks and next 5/10 years on hormone therapy other than that no other treatment to be had 

  • Hi marlee, had 6 months of chemo, 4 3 weekly treatments of AC, then 12 weekly treatments of taxol, took a while to get to full diagnosis so that's y chemo first then lymph node removal, how are you going?

  • Did you have neo adjuvant therapy?

    Often the nodes are removed before chemo so I guess then most would not know if the chemo would have made them clear?

    What does your treatment team say?

    Sorry I'm not much use with answers but would love to know too
