When Breast Cancer is Diagnosed
When Breast Cancer is Diagnosed
- What did my biopsy or needle aspiration (surgery with a needle to remove fluid or cells) show?
- What kind of breast cancer do I have?
- What is the stage of my disease?
- What is the size of the tumor?
- Has the cancer spread to my lymph nodes or other parts of my body (metastasized)?
- What tests will I have before surgery to see if the cancer has spread to any other organs (liver, lungs, bones)?
