Double mastectomy wow 17 yrs ago with reconstruction I’m 54 now a few days ago I got a constant stinging pain under the arm yet just above the breast it doesn’t go away the pain and burning will shoot down through my pretty much numb breast yesterday I did find the fairly large lump in the lower underarm area is way sore and hard I have no idea yet as a survivor am just trying to focus and breathe appt tomorrow any thoughts? And yes last time I had been ill and the lymph node was a bit sore so although the tumor itself may not hurt other things can…Is way painful this time
I know it’s probably nothing and I know how Big God is yet this as you all know is such a head trip I so don’t want theses emotions again
Hi TH,
Sorry to hear you have this anxiety, it’s horrible after what you’ve been through.
You have an appointment tomorrow to get it checked out?
Hopefully, all will be well, there’s many things it could be.
If you want to, let us know how you get on.

Hi TH, Yes, she is being honest, so try not to overthink it or read anything into what was said & being referred for mammo & ultrasound is exactly what should happen.
‘Palpable mass’ is just a technical term as ever, medical terminology can be daunting when we’re not used to it.
Let us know how you get on.
