Hi everyone my name is Margaret I was diagnosed with breast cancer in May after finding a lump in my right breast . I have recently had a lumpectomy in July and some lymph nodes removed . I had to go to the hospital several times recently as my breast swelled up and was hot and red . The doc said I had probably got an infection and there was fluid that he would drain out. I had to have it drained twice and had antibiotics. It has reduced in size but is still red I was a bit worried about some lumps that have appeared in my armpit and on my breast but I spoke to my breast care nurse and she thinks it is seroma. I have a consultation on the 23rd August to find out I think what further treatment I will be needing . I’m someone who is always asking questions since I was diagnosed as I feel the more answers I get the better I can cope with what has been an enormous shock to me .
