New Lump

Last reply: 12 November 2014 13:27

Hi all I was diagnosed with breast cancer in May, had a lumpectomy and lymph node removal and 20 sessions of Radiation treatment which was horrific as I burnt so bad blisters formed had to stop treatment for 2 weeks. Now I have another lump in same breast. Has this happened to anyone else?? Surely it can't be cancer so quick, going to breast clinic on Tuesday to get it checked am so worried

Hi DeeGlav!

I too have had a lumpectomy and lymph node removal followed by radiation so our cases sound similar? You are absolutely right to get it checked .. thought I must say that my breast is only now beginning to feel half 'normal' and I finished radiation over a year ago, so fingers crossed all is well and it is nothing to worry about.. Do let us know how you get on Tuesday Image removed.

Hi
Same happened to me so had mammo and ultrasound and it was a large cyst which I got drained. The nurse said this is very common when on tamoxifen. So good luck tomorrow
