update on breast cancer
Hello, I had my lumpectomy and a lymph node taken out on Feb 10th. I'm sore! but feel good, did gain a couple pounds from the anesthesia, thank god is has come off!!! Tomorrow I get results of lumpectomy and lymph node, alittle nervous but ready!!!! This weight loss has kept me very happy!! It's a great distraction!!
Sending prayers and positive thoughts for negative lymph node and clear margins! I went through the same thing in September (1.4 cm, grade 1 tumor with 1 cm clear margins) and negative node. I know that my cancer treatment would have been harder to handle had I not had WLS and lost weight. I did the high dose radiation for a week and am for all purposes healed and cancer free - will be on tamoxifen for 5 years.
