Hi All.

was diagnosed with BC 2020 and had left mastectomy and tamoxifen as treatment, I didn’t have chemo or radiotherapy as at the time they felt it wouldn’t be beneficial. 
Last week I had auxiliary node clearance after having issues with arm pit and finding a lump a few weeks ago, I won’t get any pathology/follow-up until early July, having a few issues with my arm tightening and burning pain in my bicep hoping this will ease.
does anyone have any experience of same issues as I’m a little bit stressed about what next stage is if any treatment at all  also don’t have a great deal of faith with my local clinic for one reason or another. 

  • I should had they have confirmed bc is back after biopsy and that we are looking at possibly primary again, although was told originally stage 4 and secondary so unsure at present
