Should I do radiation for occult breast cancer found in lymph nodes?

Don't be afraid to look outside the box

Prayer

This sounds like an incredibly overwhelming situation, and it's completely understandable to feel uncertain about such complex treatment decisions. Occult breast cancer is indeed rare, which can make the path forward feel even more daunting. The upcoming meeting with the cancer surgeon will be a valuable opportunity to ask detailed questions about the recommended treatments, understand the reasoning behind each option, and discuss any concerns about how the body might handle the full treatment plan. Many patients find it helpful to bring a list of questions and perhaps a trusted friend or family member to that appointment for support and to help remember important details.

Reserve opinion until meeting with the surgeon and oncologist. I was diagnosed with Triple Negative Breast Cancer of my left breast. After lumpectomy and partial mastectomy with reduction of the right breast. 2 lymph nodes were also removed. It was determined that no other cancer was found, but I still would have chemotherapy and radiation to prevent possible recurrence, this type of cancer is known for reoccurrence. I have finished two of four chemotherapy treatments and so far it’s not been so bad (some bone pain that is controlled with medication. Will start Radiation therapy next year. Ultimately the decision is yours, but here what is available to you and new research and treatments are happening everyday. Gods Speed

Cancer found in 2 axillary nodes has originated from somewhere… most likely breast. Listen carefully to your Oncology team. They are well educated and will be straightforward… be open to hear them. Best wishes.
