Anyone else with small invasive her2 + LVI and positive sentinel node
Just curious if anyone else has had a very small invasive her2+ bc and had positive lymphovascular invasion and a positive micromets in the first sentinel lymph node? Its hard to believe that my very small invasive cancer of 4mm did have Lymphovascular invasion with a positive node. However, it seems certain as I had the pathology checked several times by leading cancer centers. I guess thats what you get when you have er,pr negative bc, it forms blood vessels better and faster to feed the little nasty(s).
Whoops, just want to stress the positive node was a micrometastasis, not macro, detected by IHC.
PS. At least most of my breast tumor was 5cm of DCIS- pre-invasive or I probably wouldn't be here. LOL.
