Just got back from the ultrasound and meeting with the breast cancer surgeon (both appointments already scheduled). The ultrasound was first and a doctor with 20 years experience perfomed the ultrasound. She said she only saw normal lymph nodes. I was thrilled. Then we went to see the breast cancer surgeon and she agreed that it appeared to be just lymph nodes, but she wants me to watch it for a few months and then come back in and let her make sure it hasn't changed at all. She actually scared me a little because she had a sort of skeptical look on her face the whole time...but when I specifically asked her if I had anything to worry about she said that my lymph nodes are not even enlarged, they are less than 1cm big, and as long as they don't change, it's all perfectly normal....I just don't want to go back, or have to worry about it...but I guess I should count my blessings!! If there's no change in 3 months, I'll be home free.
