Thanks for your responses. I am Stage IIIC-- I had a 2.5cm tumor, with 2 grossly positive nodes, and 12 micro-positive nodes (just invented that term, hopefully you'll know what I mean). My frustration is that I seem to be getting the same type of treatment as someone Stage I or II, but I'm a bit further along. Has anyone here dealt with that-- is that just another facet of this challenge that I need to deal with? I'm getting treated at Sloan-Kettering, so maybe I should just feel confident that I'm in good hands?

Many thanks for your help.
