Hi. I had bc in 2013. Now just found swollen node under arm. Freaking out? Has this happened to anybody?

  • Hi

    I notice your post has gone unanswered and this may be that no-one was around at the time you posted who could help. I guess the answer to this is that yes, it can happen.  My sister-in-law had recurring BC (hers was advanced stages when initially diagnosed) but it could also be absolutely nothing for you.

    The only way you will find out for sure is to contact your doctor and get yourself referred to the breast clinic (if you haven't already done this, of course).

    There's really nothing else I can offer other than I really hope it's nothing but an infection or something similar! and that by answering your post then someone who may have been in a similar position is around now to offer some support.

    Best wishes, Lesley

  • Hi , just wanted to add (which you may already know and may not apply to you) that if you’ve recently had a Covid jab, there have been many reports here of people having swollen lymph nodes after the jab. But definitely need to get checked out. 
    Good luck and let us know how you get on. HFxx
