@lansing, did you have a second biopsy? May I ask your diagnosis? How are you doing now?

My sentinel node biopsy yesterday showed no cancer spread to the lymph nodes! Now I have a post-op 10/31 and then can schedule radiation after that. Not sure how long it takes to heal from surgery but I am amazed when they essentially just glue the scar closed these days (just like when they did my lumpectomy). Applying ice & taking Tylenol. I have an Occ Therapy consultation 10/29 to see if there is any need to worry about Lymphedema.
