Pathology

Wednesday, May 29 -  A couple of hours after writing my last blog entry, I got a call from the surgeon's office with my pathology report.  I was told that it did confirm Invasive Ductal Carcinoma (which is good, cause I sure would have hated going through all of this for nothing).  The report also showed that 9 out of the 10 nodes tested were positive.  Also, margins were clear.  The right side papilloma was benign.

I will be getting a call back tomorrow with appointment follow-ups with the surgeon and the medical oncologist to make sure we are still going with the same treatment due to pathology reports.  I will also have an appointment set up with the radiation oncologist in Washington.

After drains are removed, I will also be seeing a physical therapist for range of motion exercises.  Sounds like I will be busy!
