What Causes Malignant Axillia Lumps In The Right Armpit And Breast Cancer?

I've been diagnosed with 4 malignant axillia lumps in the right armpit along with a malignant lump in the breast. They say I have stage 3C breast cancer. I'm waiting to get chemo & then surgeries. Then chemo or radiation after. I don't know how long I have to wait until I get in for chemo?

Hi

You need urgent chemotherapy atleast 6 cycles to reduce your tumour size followed by surgery.

Do a pet scan before chemotherapy.
