Hi Shaz,
You poor darl! This journey has so many corners that you can't see around. It happens sometimes that they don't get a clear margin and then you have to have some more taken. I took a punt and had ALL my lymph nodes removed only to find out that they were ALL clear.That was 7yrs ago and I haven't had any arm probs.I don't regret it cos I got cancer back again in the same breast last year despite having had radiaition.(unlucky 8%).I'm guessing there were no lymph nodes to travel to this time.It was also quicker to recover from just a mastectomy. It would be great to have a crystal ball when faced with these awful choices. I hope the next few weeks are easier on you.
