Invasive ductal carcinoma grade 2

Hello all, 

I have been a bit of a lurker the last couple of weeks but wanted to join as everybody seems so lovely and I think I need some guidance/help. 
 

I have been diagnosed with Grade 2 IDC which has spread to one lymph node, which was diagnosed with a core biopsy. I'm waiting for a call about surgery and then radiotherapy and maybe chemo. 

Does anybody have any history of this and what was your outcome? I'm trying really hard to be optimistic but things creep in my head when I least expect it. 
 

This forum is a wealth of help, knowledge and support and I thank you for that  

Maggie

    Hi Maggie

    I was just diagnosed with stage 3 invasive ductal carcinoma which they found in the 2 lymph nodes they tested. I still have a  couple more tests but have been told I will have chemotherapy first and after that either a lumpectomy or mastectomy depending on how the chemotherapy goes.

    I totally understand what you mean about the horrible thoughts creeping in.

    I am holding onto what the consultant said - this cancer is highly treatable.
