My mom had a mastectomy last week and I'm a bit worried about what comes next. I've got her histology and ER PR HER2 reports could you take a look and let me know if she needs any further treatment? Just want to make sure we're doing everything right for her recovery.

I'm really worried because my mom's been having bad low back pain for the past 10 days, and when the doctor did a CT scan, they mentioned her lungs are infected. They even said it could be lung cancer. Can you help me understand if it's really lung cancer or not? It's all so overwhelming, and I'm not sure what to think or do.
