Breast lump diagnosis

I’ve just been for the first screening and after a mammogram, biopsy and ultrasound I’ve been told that I have a 3.5cm lump (which feels much bigger). They have also said that although a couple of my lymph nodes are enlarged that the cancer hasn’t spread to them. Is this normal or should I be concerned?

    did you get a breast cancer diagnosis? What they mean is the lymph nodes look clear , if you have a operation they will check the lymph nodes and send them off to the lab to make sure it’s a deeper check rather than a scan after your operation you will get a clearer picture and no for sure if there’s anything in lymph nodes 

    good luck love Lara xx
