My cancer was caught very early too.
From a routine mammogram came the cyst. Then the cyst was aspirated — no cancer cells.
So the choice was to either watch the cyst and get more frequent appointments, or have a lumpectomy.
I opted for the lumpectomy and lo and behold, there was a tiny cluster of cancer cells (6mm, I believe) in the tissue beneath where the cyst had been.
From the lumpectomy came a partial mastectomy and removal of 7 lymph nodes, which were negative. The doctor recommended the partial and referred me to an oncologist.
Perhaps because of my age. Not sure. So we’ll see what the oncologist recommends in our meeting tomorrow morning.

Good luck and our prayers combined with His grace to you. I’ll wager since nothing was found in the nodes, it usually means no radiological treatments.
