I have found a small lump about an inch and a half above the scar. I don't remember it being there before.
Any comments please. I was just feeling positive and now I have gone to Z again and convinced it's cancer.
Help!!
Helen
Hi Helen do not panic, I had a mastectomy 4 weeks ago , the lump you have does it feel like fluid, because if it does it’s called a seroma which is a pocket of fluid that can happen after surgery, I have two at the moment , which they say will disperse on there own. I hope this helps.

Hi yes it does thank you I was panicing. I see the consultant for my results next Thursday but that is so far away as we all know the waiting game is the worst.
Thank you
