I would have to assume they checked all the nodes. Did they take all or just some? I had all mine removed even though 4 of 14 were cancerous. I think these days, they don't take them all. Sometimes they do have to go back for clearer margins. Not often, though. You probably won't have any more chemo. I would think at this point you are clear of the disease. One of my most fervent wishes is that we could be tested after treatment to KNOW that it's really gone!!!
I started writing questions in my phone so I would remember what to ask when at the Onc/Surgeon's office. You'll have more, believe me!! When do you start rads?
