Hi all, I’m currently being checked for BC spread to my lymph nodes & anywhere else. Biopsy came back positive. CT scan didn’t show anything & I had a bone scan on Friday & the nurse doing it said “I shouldn’t say anything but that looks ok to me” fingers crossed he’s right.
BUT I’m terrified!!

Hi Carolyn,
When I saw my onc she said 6 or 8 rounds of chemo & then herceptin. I haven’t heard of anyone else just having it in LN
Cancer loves lymph nodes so I’m sure you are not alone …hopefully some other ladies will post and give u some better info.
Herceptin is a very efficient treatment so I’m sure once u get past the chemo bit …you will feel better. .

I’ve only had lymph nodes involved in my secondary breast cancer… I had my primary way back in 1995 and several local recurrences from 2009 onwards, leading to a secondary diagnosis when cancer spread to a hilar lymph node on my chest wall. Although this was inoperable it has been successfully contained for nearly 5 years and I don’t have organ involvement as yet.
My thoughts are that it is your response to treatment that is all important, there are many available so take heart from that, you are at the start of your journey. It is so much more doable when a plan is in place xx
Hi all
I am another with only LN involvement - six months in now so its good to hear from others in a similar situation - 5 years in iis amazing to hear - thanks for the positive post Stillhere
Hope the chemo goes well and does the job Pebbles

Hi, anybody had Breast cancer with lymph nodes taken out. Had mastectomy 2014 and had a bit of a phlegm cough for the last few weeks. Went for chest x Ray last Friday and waiting for results. I have noticed that my lymph nodes on my neck on the other side have come up and i am worried sick now in case it’s come back x
Hi Rosie,
The best thing you can do is go to your doctor. Not much help I’m afraid but get them checked out to (hopefully) put your mind at rest. Let us know how you get on?
Xx
Hi ladies, slightly different story from me. I was dx with left BC in sep2014. 2 tumours measuring 8cm and 2cm. In addition to lymph node oh

Had to go in Monday night in lots of pain and cutting a long story short cancer from Breast come back,in lymph nodes and think liver.
