Suzanne,
I echo everyone- we are sorry you are here but this is truly the BEST place to be. I cannot say enough about our wonderful members, they are knowleable, compassionate and fun!
As you see in my signature I had a similiar diagnosis (only ER/PR-) we are the same age. As difficult as the initial shock is, please do get a 2nd opinion. I did not have a mast. so I am not sure about radiation. I only know I felt I wanted to do everything because I want to be here (like you) to finish the job of raising my kids.
Best of luck and again Welcome.
Mary
