Possible reoccurrence so soon after treatment finished

Hi  

What a worry for you.

Getting it checked is all you can do for the moment.

I found a lump in my good breast whilst treatment was still going on. I was seen immediately by my consultant who did a punch biopsy there and then and it was nothing sinister. They are lumps that appear during my period. I'm use to feeling them there now.

let us know how you get on. Mondays not far away.

love

Hi Jigsaw

I had lumpectomy in my left boob and reconstruction on both in February. Finished my treatment in August. Found a lump in my right boob just on the edge of the nipple in September. It was hard and about the size of a pea. Mine moved around as well. 

Saw my surgeon, had ultrasound and biopsy. Turned out it was a suture granulation (I think that's right) which basically is when scar tissue forms around a stitch. My surgeon said mine contained bits of stitch and fluid. I was out of my mind obviously, anyway it's gone now. I was surprised that it had appeared 7 months after surgery, but apparently it can be quite normal.

I had a lump appear on my scar a year ago, 2 years after diagnosis. Had the lump taken off and checked. Turned out it was a cyst. I think after what we have all been through, it's natural to think the worst but please try and keep some positive thoughts as there is a good chance it's nothing to worry about. Best wishes x

Thank u. I will let you know x

Thanks. It's such a terrifying thought. I'm trying to maintain a sense of perspective but it's hard xxx

It's so difficult to keep calm when you're mind is all over the place.

I'm hoping they will do ultrasound on Monday xxx

Thank you 

I really hope you are ok Jigsaw. Thinking of you. Xxxx

Hi I've had a mammogram and ultrasound today and it's all CLEAR. The lump is nothing to worry about and is likely to be a small cyst.

I know that all our friends in this TNBC community will understand the fear of finding a lump after original surgery and the relief when you're told all is fine.

Thank you to ever who responded to my orignal post

Great news xx

That's brilliant news ! Merry Christmas to you and your family...... let the festivities begin :)
