Re: Recurrence in Neck Lymph Nodes?

Wow, that’s cool. I just found out a few years ago that there was a Cheboygan in MI. We just got about 9 inches of snow today. The fluffy/pretty kind. I just said a prayer for you Hayley that all goes well tomorrow. Love and hugs.

Smile Re: Recurrence in Neck Lymph Nodes?

Thank you for the prayers!!!! Can never have enough of those!

I miss the white, fluffy snow and all the outdoor fun in it. My kids love ice skating, snowmobiling, sledding, ice fishing, etc, when we go there to visit my family. As you know, summers are amazing up north!! Our favorite place to go in the summer!

Re: Recurrence in Neck Lymph Nodes?

**UPDATE** I truly appreciate all the support on this site. The surgeon did bilateral biopsies. Ironically, the left side, where I felt the lump, came back as a reactive lymph node, however on the right side, where I didn't know of anything, it came back with atypical cells. The surgeon said that the pathologist was concerned with either lymphoma or luekemia, which rarely can occur as a secondary cancer after breast cancer. I couldn't believe it. This morning, the surgeon removed the lymph node that was biopsied on the right side as well as a neighboring salivary gland. The surgeon told my husband that he didn't see anything concerning, so we are cautiously optimistic. We should have the results back by Tuesday at the latest. I will post an update once we know for sure, but wanted to thank everyone again for being so supportive!

Re: Recurrence in Neck Lymph Nodes?

Please let me know where you had surgery..the surgeon told me surgery was not an option..only radiation and chemo..
