They removed two more lymph nodes and they were clear for breast cancer but still showed up the CLL. I’m on W&W. Does this mean all lymph nodes if tested would show CLL? Would having radiation do any damage to CLL?

I was diagnosed with early stage Breast cancer in late November. I had the lumpectomy and node biopsy late January and had my first weekly chemo last week (Taxol weekly + Herceptin every 3 weeks). Is anyone else on the same treatment plan?

Has anyone gotten a secondary cancer while on W & W ? I had breast cancer two years ago and had a lumpectomy with no chemo or radiation. My cancer is now back in same breast. Thinking of a mastectomy this time but still concerned that the CLL might be an underlying cause.
