Dear Kelly, Male breast cancer is rare, but one out of every 150 cases of breast cancer involves a man, usually in men over 60 years old. Treatment of male breast cancer uses the same modalities as are used to treat females with breast cancer, these may include use of surgery, radiation therapy, hormone therapy, biologic therapy and/or chemotherapy. Decisions regarding treatment are based on such factors as stage of disease, tumor characteristics (size of tumor, hormone receptor status, Her2 status), lymph node status. Your husband will likely be seen by a medical oncologist who will discuss what follow up treatments will be appropriate with his situation. In regard to support groups for persons with male breast cancer, this may be difficult because the numbers are small, however some communities do have such groups. You may have more luck finding online support communities.
