Re: 6 of 8 lymph nodes w/cancer i Don't understand
sounds like you had your sentinals removed and level 1 nodes. From my understanding everyone has a different number - I only had 2 sentinals, some people only have 1 other 4 etc... with 8 it sounds like they only did a SNB and level 1
if they were all positive they may have removed more...but since you are having radiation then that will take care of anything else
