@DMaree glad to hear you got through it all and are now home resting and recuperating. Last July, I had a recurrence worst luck in the same breast from 4yrs earlier. I also had another major lumpectomy and sentinel node biopsy. I remember finding out before I left hospital whether it was contained in the breast and not in the lymph nodes which I was elated about. My breast is considerably smaller now than the right and after 4.5 months of Chemo that ended last December am now facing a Mastectomy next year. I certainly dont regret the 2 lumpectomies I had done as my Surgeon said I had nothing to gain from a Mastectomy, its only because of a recurrence that they suggest it. I had IDC 3rd stage aggressive Breast Cancer. The waiting is tough absolutely, but you will get all your results entirely and that is what you want and need together with recommendations of a treatment plan as its all very different for everyone.
Glad youre in great spirits! rest and get well. Hugs Melinda xo
