Thanks for replying so quickly.
I was surprised that mine was 50 and wondered if it's really necessary to have chemo.
I was told because cancer cells were present in one sentinel lymph node, I should have chemo to kill any cancer cells remaining and lessen chance of recurrence.

@mtstack that is correct because without any intervention it WILL spread and if it's aggressive like mine it will be fast. I thought I had a UTI and then bladder infection. Went to ER when pain was unbearable and scan found cancer. I'd get the chemo and knock it on out before it gets worse. Don't play around with that.

@mtstack I think of cancer cells like this. They’re like the ant hill you see on the sidewalk in the summertime. You stomp them out or throw a bucket of water on them. You *think* you got them all……. Until you see an ant 2 doors down that got away…….
Chemo will take care of that ant.
