I've got a grade 3 tumour. Can anyone tell me the difference in the grades and I'm assuming this is different to "stages".
Thanks, still nee to all this. Started chemo last week prior to lumpectomy later.
Hello Suh, you'll find lots of friendly advice and support here so any questions don't be afraid to ask as there will be someone here who will answer. My tumour is grade 3 too, and I've had a lumpectomy and am now half way through chemo. You're right about 'grade' and 'stage' being different, and if you take a look at this link it explains the difference in grades and staging:
