Thank you for the warm welcome! I will try to answer some of the questions that you ask. I am going to see the oncologist on the 14th (Good Friday) and I hope it's just that. Anyway as far as the staging goes, the surgeon said it was a B and I think he must be talking about the Dukes, because the nodes were clear and no other organs involved. It also was a T3, which means the depth, right? I'm getting this from reading about staging. One surgeon said there were a few cells seen in the wall, but said nothing about going through the wall. Any way I'm worried about chemo and am trying to find others who had similiar staging. And if they are on chemo. I guess I am now a part of a new family.
