I am so sorry that you are going through all this when it should be such a happy time for you with a lovely new bub to enjoy. Waiting for appointments to find out more is one of the big challenges of this process. It is so hard to stop our minds from leaping around and imagining all sorts of scenarios. The fact that your tumor shrank considerably has to be good. It means that your cancer responded to the chemo. Chemo killed many, many cancer cells for you and the fact that your scans were clear before hand is also very good news. No new cancer cells are likely to have grown while the chemo was busy killing them. Many of us have received the news that there were cancer cells in the lymph nodes. I had it in 5 of mine. But just remember these were microscopic and have now been removed. As your surgeon has told you, the cancer is gone. There are many ladies who go onto lead healthy lives after treatment for similar cancer situations. Your oncologist will have a plan that will best suit your situation. Wishing you all the best for Monday. I am sure you will feel better once you know more about what is next in the plan for you. Take care and let us know how you go. Deanne xxx
