Hi My name is Tracey,
A brief history
Diagnosed Feb 06 IDC, left Breast 3cm Tumor Full radical Mastectomy6 lymph nodes involved. Tact 2 trial radio and then 9/17 Herceptins.
Recon went wrong had tissue expander lat dorsi - infected necrotic etc.
Recently noticed a small boney lump the size of a pea, actually like a hard frozen one if that makes sense!! on left side on recon breast!!
Should I be worried, thought i had been doing so so well as it is 5 yrs nxt feb 2011.
Has anybody else had the same experience - a little tender to touch.
Any info would be much appreciated , am I worrying over nothing!!
Kind Rgds
Tracey
Hi Tracey,
I had my recon on 6th november and in the cleavage have something that you describe, the surgeon says this is to do with surgery. Best to get it checked out though, Im awaiting a ct just to put my mind at rest.
I hope that by bumping this up someone else will be able to shed some light on it for you too xxxx
Hi
please do get it checked out, it may well be nothing but then again it could. I had what I though was a boney lump next to Mx site, even radiographer thought it was a bone when she palpated it, but it turned out to be a local recurrence.
Always better to be safe than sorry
Linda
