Hi I just wanted to ask a question has anyone had all their lymph nodes taken out from their axillary armpit area and how have they been afterwards. Like has it caused them any problems.
Thank you for your reply bless you. Do you just get the numb feeling nothing else. Is it best to just have the ones that are required to remove would you say.
I have 2 rounds left of my EC then I get a month to just recover from chemo and surgery in November. I am just contemplating if it's best to have all the lympe nodes removed or just the ones that are needed. I don't want to have any other health problems later because of this.
