Hi all, I was diagnosed with Breast Cancer in 2009, was grade 2 12mm 100% hormone driven, had op, chemo, rads and now on tamoxifen. Had a hysterectomy to further reduce my hormone levels. Problem is last night i was lying on couch and thought I could feel a node in my neck (I was node negative ) I have lost weight recently due to diet. I can feel the thing when i press down and do circle movements but not when I just press down when i raise my shoulders up cant feel it at all, I am making myself very sore constantly feeling. I cant handle this much more been nearly 4 years of anxiety and stress for me now. Do any of you know what a node feels like ???

Thanks
