Why doctors should wait 10/1/2009

So I got it wrong yesterday. It turns out that the surgeon took 5 nodes and they are at the lab now being tested to see if the cancer is in them. These are the nodes in the sentinel area. I should know for sure tomorrow or Monday whether the cancer has spread beyond the breast. This is just one more reason why doctors should wait to discuss the surgery til patients are completely awake and cogent.
