I have recently undergone a right mastectomy and sentinel node biopsy, 3 nodes showed traces, I was then given the option of chemo and radiotherapy or axillary full clearance , I opted for the clearance, been for results and 34 nodes removed of which 5 infected, been told I need chemo and radiotherapy but will need PET scan before starting treatment, been told this is purely backup and will determine the chemo etc but I am now stressing about the " what if" something else shows up even though it precaution, I've been so positive but feel quite deflated today, suppose it's good to be cautious but now feels like something else to worry about, meant to say I had hormone fed cancer.
