Hi all
I am 39 and have 2 small kids and a husband and I am very scared of this diagnosis. It's made worse by my mum having died of metastatic breast cancer in 2019. I never anticipated getting it this young!
I found the lump (4x2cm) at Easter weekend and just had a biopsy result on Friday to tell me its Grade 1 ER+ cancer at 39! I did go private initially as I was told the initial 2ww could be more like 3. But actually it was just under 2 weeks.
I had my lumpectomy and partial breast reconstruction yesterday. During the post op visit the consultant said that they took a number of lymph nodes as they didn't get a strong signal. What does that mean please?
Many thanks
