Also waiting for auxiliary clearance and feel a bit more positive after reading the replies here. I've looked into radiotherapy as an alternative to auxiliary clearance, as it is recommended in NICE guidelines when cancer cells just found in sentinel node, and is available depending on where you live. Having researched it and spoken to Macmillan nurse, I've decided to go with surgery rather than go back to MD Team and request radiotherapy. If there is no more cancer found at least I know this I'm clear of disease and will just have to have radiotherapy to the breast. There is a lot of information out there, unfortunately you will only be told about what's available at your hospital, so I've learned to question everything. Luckily I have a very supportive surgeon. Good luck x

It's just horrible.  I have been in some very dark places.  It's hard to stay positive knowing what's ahead!! Best of luck and love xx
