Hi all, I hope you can help.
I had a mastectomy/reconstruction 14 years ago for a Grade 3 tumour, no clear margins on chest wall. So it was followed by chemo/radio.
Just the last few months I’ve been getting intermittent really sharp stabbing pains underneath the lower part of my reconstructed breast. Had a poke around (as you do!) & am not sure but think I can feel a lump there. Is it possible to get a lump in the reconstruction? Or could it be something I’m feeling underneath it? It was a lat flap with a silicone implant.
The area where the pains are is quite tender to the touch. My mind is overdrive ?
