Dr said that he wants to remove both nodes that lit up as well as some surrounding. Surgery is scheduled for August 4th! I hate that it is so far away! After removal he will then send nodes off to pathology and then go from there. Of course if cancerous he will suggest rad/chemo. I am assuming cancerous...what else would cause such swelling in my nodes.
