Anyone been diagnosed grade 3 - lymph node - stage 2 BC

Hi there 

Well I have had it confirmed I have grade 3 in my left nymph node and stage 2 breast cancer they’ve said it’s the most common cancer and it’s curable 

i am going for my MRI tomorrow and CT Thursday to see if any spread 

As you can imagine I am beside myself because of the unknown

They want to start chemo then surgery 

Any stories or advice I would really appreciate

  • HI Wisey,

    This is certainly not the news you wanted, but it is definitely treatable. I hope that your MRI and CT will, by now, have shed more light on exactly what you are dealing with. How many sessions of chemo are they planning to do before surgery? You will feel better once treatment begins and you start to fight the cancer - you've got this - you're stronger than you think!

    Kind regards,

  • They said 6 months worth but I’m seriously worried that it’s spread because every pain ache feeling that I have in my chest area I’m thinking the worst

  • Hi Wisey,

    The chemo should help to reduce the size of the tumour. Your MRI should have indicated whether there was any spread and if so, how far it has spread. It is common to feel every little ache and pain at this stage and to automatically think the worst, so here's hoping that this is just your mind playing tricks on you. Have you been told anything about the findings of your CT and MRI yet, or when are you due to get these results? This stage of limbo is one of the hardest to get through - it's almost impossible to get past the unknown. You really will feel better once you have the full picture and can start to deal with it.

    When are they planning to start your chemo?

  • No nothing 

    results Thursday then hopefully oncology appointment 2-3 weeks after that x

  • Hi Wisey,

    Still a few unknowns to tick off your list - soon all of this waiting will be over and you can get on with the business in hand.
