So I have just been referred back on fast track to the breast clinic, I was discharged 3 years ago and haven’t had any follow up since just before the pandemic as I had bilateral masectomy. I have developed a lesion in the flap area of my left reconstructed breast ( DIEP). My original diagnosis was breast cancer in the left breast, but due to high risk I had prophylactic masectomy on right breast at the same time. Lymph nodes were clear. I had some enlarged lymph nodes on my left side show up on an X-ray just prior to discharge and I was given a PET or CT scan (can’t remember which) and the report came back that they were just reactive lymph nodes, I am now panicking that the6 have missed something, like they did on my annual mammograms!
Is it possible that BC can come back and just look like a blister that has formed a scab? There is no pain or tenderness there, but some of the skin near it looks whiter and a bit sort of bubbly as if that might blister. My bras fit fine and do not rub and it is not in an area that would rub I.e not near a seam or edge, wire etc.
