[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, if this is your diagnosis, I’m truly sorry. My grandmother had breast cancer at 52, in 1964. Her treatment was a “radical mastectomy” that apparently was the only treatment: surgical removal of her entire left breast, lymph nodes under her left arm and maybe even fat and muscle below her bicep area. She wore long sleeves and special weighted pads in her specially purchased bra. She was disfigured. She lived well into her late 80s, although was perhaps the next to the last generation who kept her diagnosis a secret from everyone except her own daughter. [/quote] They didn't remove lymph nodes back then, which is why cancers spread and recurred so much more frequently.[/quote]
