Re: 8 of 14 nodes
Well at least you know what you are working with. Good luck and I will say a prayer for you on Friday. I know your surgery will go well. What I find strange is you had no mass, only calcifications, yet have lymph node involvement. That is curious. I am sure Herceptin will knock it all out!
