2. It cannot be "cured" per say, but it can be controlled. Depending on the attributes of the cancer, there are different drugs used for different circumstances. It is not a death sentence. See

4. At stage 3, the cancer is still in the early stage,emphasis at this stage of the disease is on Curing the tumor though it could be fixed to the skin with or without spread to the axillary nodes. Down staging the lump with radiotherapy or chemotherapy before surgery to excise it can be beneficial to the patient. However all effort must have been made to rule out distant metastasis to organs like the liver, lungs or the bones.
5. most breast cancer is curable if caught early stage 3 can still be cured my mom has stage 4 breast cancer and has now been knocked down to stage2 after chemo and surgery and she is 61

7. yes breast cancer can be cured like any other cancer.our body can heal itself,all we have to do is stimulate the acu -point that changes the abnormal cells to new cells and it is very effective.It is like a natural chemo.
8. Stage 3 tumours are larger than 5cm and may be attached to surrounding structures in the breast such as the muscle or skin. The lymph glands are usually affected, but there are no signs that the cancer has spread beyond the breast or the lymph glands in the armpit
   
   with this in mind it is possible to treat this tumour with surgery which includes removing some if not all of the lymph nodes, radiation and chemo or a combination of them. which path of treatment chosen is down to the individual and all should be explained to them so they can decide which is best for them
