Hi Delbx,

Really sorry to hear about your diagnosis. I was diagnosed with stage 2-3 last Wednesday and had an armpit biopsy on Thursday to check for positive lymph nodes. I am anxious too but after speaking to the nurse this morning, she reassured me it is highly unlikely there would be spread in that period. The horrible thing is we don't know for sure. I'd suggest chatting to one of the nurses at your unit. Hopefully they can put your mind at ease. Take care and look after yourself
