@polianad22 HI, they only removed the sentinel node and it showed positive micromet .5mm. Only one was removed. The radioactive material they injected before the surgery only showed the path to that one. But my oncologist said we can "assume" that it traveled to others and elsewhere I'm my body. I am getting a second opinion and also have another appointment with my current oncologist.

@kristi even if cells travelled to other parts of the body, if your cancer is highly responsive to estrogen, a hormonal med be what's needed and chemo may not be needed. Let us know!
