Lymph Node Pathology Report

Direct quote from an email from the surgeon . . . "I am pleased to inform you that the pathology on the three sentinel lymph nodes that I removed was NEGATIVE for cancer. In other words the cancer has not spread to the lymph nodes under your arm. This is good news!"


Hmm, my hubby told me they told him after the surgery that they removed 2 nodes, hmmm, but whatever, they are clear :-)  This is particularly important because the tumor growth rate is the most aggressive, which also means the most likely to spread.
