Lobular Cancer, 24 positive lymph nodes
Faithfully had my annual physical and mammograms. Excellent health except an enlarged lymph node found in mammogram Sept 2007-- thought to be "cat scratch fever", however turned out to be lobular cancer with 24 of 25 lymph nodes and 3 breast spots. All previous mammograms were negative. I had my first lumpectomy in 1963 when I was 22 and several others over the years, both breasts and always benign. I took prem-pro and estrogen after prempro. Stopped taking premarin the day I was diagnosed. Good news from latest scans-- everything is looking good. I get to wait 4 months before my next check up. Latest scans 8/2009 and 9/2009 all looking good--
