I have stage 1 breast cancer, and just got the results of the sentinel lymph nodes biopsy......positive.
I now have option of radiotherapy or removal of all lymph nodes. I don't know what to do.
I would like to hear from anyone who has had all lymph nodes removed.
Thank you Janet. It’s really hard. Did the information you received via the Macmillan nurse have any statistical Figures? X
Hi.
The information had no statistics as such. It had a link to the AMAROS study.
Here is a link I got from Breast Cancer Now.
