Diagnosed July 07. Mastectomy Chemo and radiotherapy. Now on Femara. Whilst on chemo my other breast and armpit felt uncomfortable. Surgeon said this was due to the chemo. 4 months after finishing chemo it still feels the same - in particular I can feel something in the armpit - not so much a lump as a ridge that moves.
Anyone else had anything like this? You wouldn’t expect the cancer to turn up whilst on chemo - or would you?

Hi Sarcath,
Had the same feeling under my armpit and other breast during chemo, phoned my consultant and an appointment was arranged 2 days later, had the scan and everything was ok…I think any worries at all you should speak to consultant or breast care nurse. By the way I had the result of scan same day…Best of luck!
