Hi
I have noticed a change to my right nipple - areola. It’s a much darker patch and is difficult to describe. Imagine a coffee cup stain - it’s like a ring that overlaps the edge of the areola and there’s a faint white mark next to it on the edge. There’s a small lump as well. I have an appointment in 9 days with the BCN. I take anastrzole for cancer to my other breast (mastectomy) about 9 months ago, so not sure if this is something anyone else has experienced?
thanks x
Hi Polar Bear
I haven't had the experience you mention but I noticed that you haven't had any replies to your post yet. As you know this is a very busy group so your post will quickly have disappeared off the first page, possibly before someone with the same experience has seen it. By replying to you it will 'bump' it back to the top of the discussions list.
Do come back and let us know how you get on when you see your BCN in a week's time.
