Fibrous tissue or more tumours??
Fibrous tissue or more tumours?? Had a check up on Monday which was so thorough that the Consultant left three bruises on my upper arm in the shape of his fingers!! Had mentioned that I was very lumpy where lump was and they dismissed in December as scar tissue, now they are being more thorough and have reffered me for a scan (next friday). Part of me is thinking that it is great they are keeping an eye on me but part of me thinks “what if it is a new tumour?”. My original lump was near my breast bone but a plastic surgeon operated and removed it by cutting around the nipple to minimise scarring. I can feel a crater where lump was and hard tissue around it. Must stop worrying!!!
