RE: Neg Nodes and Mets

That is the importance of self checking and being aware of your body. It is scary at times, we tend to worry about every ache and pain. I was shocked to be diagnosed with mets almost 2 yrs after my mastectomy with no original positive nodes. My mother on the other hand has never had a re-occurence and she had 50% positive nodes...she is a 15 year survivor. This disease is uncertain, we have no guarantees...I just hope to follow in my mothers footsteps. She is my role model.
