It is not the answer we wanted but it is the answer I expected. I have invasive ductal carcinoma. It is estrogen/progesterone positive (which according the doctor is a good thing). We don't know if it is Her/neu positive yet.
I am to have a MRI on Tuesday. And if that looks good should be able to have a lumpectomy and radiation.
Saint Agnes sets up meetings with several cancer patients and on Thursdays with a Surgeon, Oncologist, Radiologist and Plastic Surgeon to learn more about all we need to learn about. That meeting should answer a lot of questions. If you folks think of any good questions to ask, show them in comments or send me an e-mail.
All in all I am feeling much better. The waiting is the hard part. While I don't want to have cancer, at least now we know what to do and where to go.
Send good wishes and say prayers.

Linell, I'm so sorry to hear that you and your family are facing this again. Not fair! Thinking of ya Susan
Can any one attend these Thursday meetings at St. A. or just the cancer patient and spouse?
Ask them how to best include or exclude your pesky friends during the treatment process!
Good Lookin!
Hi Nellie. I stopped by to check in on you and I am so sorry to hear that you're faced with this again. I miss you and love you and am thinking about you often. We need to schedule lunch or I will come to your house to give you your SSA Photo Book. Yes, finally it's done.
