Happy New Year! My surgeon called last night with my pathology report. It was good news. My tumor was 3.5 cm and the ones that had only shown up on the MRI were actually extensions of the larger tumor. It was good that I had the mastecomy. I am listed as Stage IIA. All the nodes that were removed were listed as N0 - which is considered negative, but one lymphnode did have isolated tumor cells. Dr said that was still ok. I have to do some research into it.
Our next step is choosing an oncologist to discuss treatment options. Dr Axelrod said she would fit me in on Monday before her surgery and then I can see Dr Levine, the plastic surgeon, since that appt was changed to Monday, both follow up appts.
