Well I am middle 60s and had breast cancer in 2016.  I had a lumpectomy, chemo and then radiotherapy.  Then the usual 5 years of pills.  Well, here I am again thinking that I may have to do this journey once more.  Well, I had my mammogram in July last year and got the all clear as usual....big thumbs up!  Then in November last year I started being unwell.  Tummy pains mostly with feeling bloated.  Finally went to the GP December 23rd.  To cut a long story short, I have an umbilical hernia.  Due to the bloating I had I had numerous tests.  Ultrasound, CT Scan etc.  The CT Scan showed I had a "thickening" underneath my breast.  I have been booked in for the 4 hour slot 31st January to either confirm it has returned or hasn't.  Personally, at this moment I honestly don't know if I can do it all over again.  Has anybody else had the "thickening" under their breast?  And if so, was it cancer?  Thanks for any information you may have.  Google wasn't very positive with only a 50 50 chance it is or isn't!
