Re: Sentinel node biopsy results

Thanks, girls. Yes, they have counseled from the beginning she will probably need a mastectomy. She is of course hoping for a lumpectomy but she's realistic. Even at first, she was willing to have a bilateral, but her onco and bs said that there is no clear advantage to taking both in terms of the cancer as her right breast looks clear on u/s, mammogram, and breast MRI. (Because she is so young and her breasts are very dense, they did all three for her diagnosis.)

I have to say I would rest easier if she had a BMX, but that's her call.
