I don't mean to reply just to add a comment but not sure how to do that. My diagnosis was infiltrating duct grade 2 20mm with one lymph node .8mm hormone and re positive her2 neg. my treatment was August 2013 lumpectomy followed by radiation and now on tamaxofin. I think the stage you are at is one of the hardest as there is shock and adjusting : I remember ending up on surgeon's floor which I thought at the time was a bit dramatic but that's how it was for me. Things can change too: the scans showed two other lumps that my surgeon wasn't concerned with and they did go away by themselves and my surgery went well. It is a life threatening illness with a good prognosis for many so I still cross over to these two realities but I think in the beginning, for me anyway, it was adjusting to those aspects. best wishes
