Hello. Struggling with my Mum recently diagnosed

I had the same diagnoses and all looked clear on scans. After surgery if came back that it was macro jn 2 lymph nodes and micro in the other two- so all four sentinel nodes. 
I’m awaiting pathology from node clearance to see how many more.

however, my subsequent Ct scan was clear so it doesn’t mean it’s gone anywhere else.

my aunty also had one lymph node effected and she’s 6 years post-diagnoses and no evidence of disease still so positive nodes don’t always mean the worst and 1 node is very limited involvement.

Hello,

thankyou for taking the time to reply to me i really appreciate it! 
sorry you are going through this, cannot imagine how you must be feeling. 
the waiting for me is really difficult as i’m scared of the results and feels like the days are going really slow!

i’m really glad your CT can back clear! Hope all goes well for your pathology.

thankyou for the positivity, its really what i need right now! so kind of you.

sending you lots of strength xxx 

Thank you. 
If you go on the nhs predict website and put her details in, it will give you her survival stats as 5, 10 and 15 years. Mine were better than I’d hoped, even with node involvement. They aren’t great with 4 nodes but one barely made much difference (I tried it all ways before I got full pathology). Even with significant nodes…they’re still way over 50%. 

I hope all goes well with her scans. Xx

Do you have an idea of what treatment you are going to have?

or what your aunty had?

if you don’t mind sharing that with me that would be appreciated!

thankyou xx 

No problem at all.

im having chemo over 18 weeks (6rounds), radiation and then 10 years of hormone blockers. 

my aunty only had radiation X 15 and 5 years of letrozole (after lumpectomy)which she found fine. No real side effects from either treatment.

Thankyou very much,

really appreciate your help!

hope your treatment plan goes well for you.
