No. of lymp node's removed
Hi, i had 13 lymph nodes removed with 8 being affected. I keep thinking how many nodes do we have, and i guess the more removed the more impact!!!

I had 12 removed but i think not everyone has the same number. I think with an axillary clearance they take the level 1 & 2 nodes but leave level 3 so it reduces the risk of lymphedema although some have more or less taken.
