Hi Delaney,
This is the first time I have posted anything on this site or any for that matter. I read your note and all the subsequent comments by other women - you all seem to be so knowleageable about breast cancer and so positive too! What would you suggest so I too can understand all these medical terms (and their implications)? I received my not so good pathology report (subsequent to a right bi- lateral mastectomy and lymph node removal) only last Friday and although I understand some of it - grade 3; stage 2; ER- PR-; Herr2 positive; primary tumor 1.6 cm; 2/22 lymph nodes positive for cancer, there seems to be so much more I should know...
Thak you,
Lisa
