I found small lump under my arm and went to the GP when she examined me she said she could tell it wasn't an infection so this has got me worried sick. She said she would need to refer me back to the breast clinic. I had breast cancer 7 years ago, I had radiotherapy and chemotherapy. I suppose I'm just looking to see of anyone else has had anything like this that turned out to be nothing sinister. Thanks for any advice xx
Hi iv just had ultra sound scan I have reactive lymph node I had surgery 18month ago had mastectomy hadn’t spread to lymph nodes but have had pain under arm got CT scan showed enlarged lymph node which ultra sound showed reactive lymph node. Try not to worry I’m sure it will be fine.
Thank you for replying, I have the breast clinic tomorrow morning. I can now feel like an enlarged vein running under my armpit, my arm feels quite sore and heavy now as well. I suppose I'll find out tomorrow. Thanks again for replying x
