Hello, I'm new to this forum. Eight weeks ago I found a lump in my left breast and so far have had breast conservation surgery with removal of the sentinel lymph node for biopsy. The surgery was successful on the breast as the tumour was completely removed with a good margin, and I'm left with a designer bosom 
. Unfortunately a high number of cancer cells were found in the lymph node, so I am returning for more surgery to remove all the other lymph nodes very soon. I have received very caring and professional treatment and support from my local hospital for which I am very grateful. \when we need our NHS we really need them don't we? I also have access to a very lovely Macmillan nurse attached to the unit. I'm feeing very positive so far, and have found that the information on this website is very good, and the forum stories and comments so helpful too. I find the most difficult thing has been the period waiting for test results. L
