Hello ladies,
The pathology results came back from my 12/4 surgery and I am relieved, to say the least! The tumor was removed with “clean margins,” and only the one lymph node, known to have cancer, was cancerous, out of 18 that she removed.
This was news that I was hoping to hear, but was afraid that I would not. It has been a long, emotional and stressful 13 months, but I do not have to tell you ladies about the “roller. coaster,” as you all know.
Sincerely,
Colleen
Hi Colleen,
That is excellent news! Congratulations. You must be so relieved to learn that you do not have metastatic breast cancer. All the best to you as you recover and move on with your life.

Colleen: Fantastic news!!! So happy & relieved for you! ❤️🙏❤️
Congratulations!
Colleen, I am so happy for you. Such good news. Thank you for letting us know.
Fab news. Congrats x
Whoopee! Just seeing this now. That is wonderful news. So happy for you. Makes a great end to an awful, stressful year in so many ways. I was really interested in your report about the lymph nodes. I didn't know that they were not all cancerous. Thanks for your post and happy holidays to you and yours.
Cheers, June S.
Great news ! I can imagine you will have an extra jingle in your step after this news.
I am so very happy for you Colleen, the best Christmas gift ever💕
Hi Sandra, so good to hear from you. I was thinking about you often and hope that you’re feeling better. Be well!
Great news Colleen, what a relief for you! Hope you are recovering well from the surgery. Anne 👏🏼👏🏼
Wonderful news. I am so happy for you. Best wishes going forward. Blessings, Hannah
What a great Christmas ahead, Colleen! So much to be joyful about! God bless you!XXOO Linda
Such great news! Good luck on your journey and remember to breathe!!!🍀
Yay Colleen. So happy your challenges had a positive result! Now you can relax. You have had quite a burden.
That is such good news. But make sure you keep getting scans in the future. I didn't and my cancer metastized. I had a lumpectomy and I also had clear margins. My GP did ask for scans and three years later I learned that it had spread to my bones and that I was stage 1V. I am doing well but just want you to be happy but also take care and make sure your doctor sends you for scans every six months. You deserve the care. Hugs Vienna
Happy New Year Vienna!
I, in know way feel that I am “out of the woods.” My oncologist is looking at putting me on Verzenio because it had spread to a lymph node, and he wants to prevent distant spread. I don’t think I will EVER relax, just having been through, and still dealing with, cancer.
Be as well as we can be and be good to you yourself❣️
Colleen
Correction....my GP did not ask for any scans after I had my lumpectomy - so in spite of clear margins three years later I had mbc. Make sure your doctor makes you go for regular scans. By the way, I got rid of that doctor. What an irresponsible doctor. If mbc is caught early it is cureable. Hugs Vienna.
Viennagirl,
I am sorry that oncologist you had was so incompetent, and now you are facing MBC. Thank you for your strong advice. I will TAKE it, and be sure to have regular scans.
Best,
Colleen
Colleen, I wish you the best of luck. I have a friend that had a breast removed and had clear margins and no spread to the lymph glands. She has refused all drugs and further treatment and today about 6 years after the breast removed she remains very healthy. She has a caring doctor that continues to send her for regular scans. So we know that there are good doctors. But we also have to ask for good care. I now have good care and feel hopeful again. All the best to you. Hugs Marlene
Results after needle biopsy of lung... 
Good scan results today ! 🙂
PET scan results not good. Take note of my symptoms
My history of diagnosis 
Petscan was completely clear, even my mets to my spine were gone. Has this happened to anyone else?
