Hi @tilly I had same type of  bc as you.  I was diagnosed at 52 so I wonder if it is for younger women.  I had lump 52mm.  Had lumpectomy and then 4 nodes removed. Then mastectomy with  9 more nodes removed.  Had 6  months of ac and taxol chemo and then 5 weeks of radiation.  Just gone onto letrozeole for 10 years.
