I am so sorry about your misdiagnose...I know you are scared about the spreading. I had surgery in July and they removed 39 lymph nodes and all were clear. I think the stigma of it spreading is always with us....and I am learning from the other wonderful people on this site that it is how you choose to live with that fear that counts. You are in my thoughts!
