Hi,
I'm going to try to contact my surgeon today, but in the meanwhile, can anyone shed any light?
I had SLNB and WLE 2 weeks ago. On my original CT scan, 4 lymph nodes were highlighted. During SLNB, 2 nodes were removed, but they weren't the ones which were highlighted on original CT scan.
Yesterday, I was sent for FNA of the 4 areas which showed swelling, but radiographer couldn't find 3 if them. The 4th was , in his words 'nothing sinister'.
I'm now at a loss as to what's happening.
Hi Hut
I only had a SLNB so can't help with your question I'm afraid.
How did you get on when you spoke to your surgeon?

No response from surgeon as yet. I'm having dressings changed on Wednesday, so I will speak to him then. I hope.
