Sorry to hear your news.This sometimes happens when the surgeon doesn't cut a clear enough margin around the cancer.If you have any cancer cells in the first few lymph nodes then the surgeon will want to take the rest. This is the safest option,although it is a pain to have more surgery.I've had all my lymph nodes out(18) and I'm ok.I've gone through breast cancer twice- 2003 and then in 2010. It's hard to go through all the treatments but worth it to get your health back and enjoy life.Good luck with your bc journey, Tonya xx
