Hi,

I was informed that one out of the two nodes tested during my mastectomy last week had dead cancer cells that hadn’t penetrated the node walls and therefore no further surgery is required and I would hear from my oncologist. Does anyone know if this means I have to undergo radiation or are options still on the table? I am assuming it does since one node is positive.

As a side note, my left eye is twitching/spasms like crazy about 3/4 days now. I was on Cipro and Cefradroxil. Has anyone had this type of side-effect from Cipro or other antibiotics? I am also on anasterole. It is worrisome.

9 days since my surgery. One drain was removed and one to go. Still a lot of pain and sleep has been impacted because of this but otherwise I am not letting it get me down.

Thanks.
