Linda, I know this isn't what you wanted to hear, but you will get through this...we're always here to help.
My primary bc was in my left breast, so I had a left mastectomy but kept the right breast. I then had my right breast removed a year after my first recurrence (two and a half years after the left mastectomy) as a precaution, and when I had my second recurrence last spring a PET scan showed two lymph nodes in the right axilla as being involved in spite of the mastectomy...so don't kick yourself...WE CAN'T PREDICT WHAT WILL HAPPEN. You will do what's necessary to beat this back again, and we'll be right there with you, so hang in there.

Love, Lolly
