Grade 1

Hi I have had my biopsy results and I have grade 1 breast cancer and 1 lymph node affected. I won't know the staging until.2 weeks after my lumpectomy. Surgery booked for the 15th May. I am convinced I have stage 2 as I have a lymph node affected but I'm confused about the grading as when I look into this there is no stage 2 grade 1 that I can see. I know I will just have to wait and see. But would like other people experience with stages and grades please.

    Hi Gemma,

    Sorry to hear you've been diagnosed with BC. I had it in 2021 stage 1 grade 2. When I had the initial biopsy, I was told it was grade 1 but when I got the full results after surgery it was grade 2. I wouldn't get too hung up on the grade/stage at this point because it isn't until they get it out and check your lymph nodes that you get the full picture. You'll also torture yourself trying to fathom it all out. You'll be well looked after and will have all you need to know soon enough. Take care x
