Strange lump
Strange lump Hi,
Have noticed recently Ive got a lump near my shoulder, its about 10cms x 10cms, could this be a weird reaction to chemo treatment? Or something else? Any advise welcome, thanks
Em xx
PS. Its on the right side, lumpectomy was on the left.
strange lump Hi Emmalou -
sorry to hear about your lump - that sounds very big to me. I really don’t know much about metastates, the only thing I can recollect is being in a volunteer service car when I was undergoing rads, and we had to pick up a lady in her 70’s who was having rads for a lump on her neck. She had been dx with bc some 12 years earlier. but no problems in the intervening period.
I have never heard of lumps being connected to chemo, but I am not a doctor, just a bc survivor. I would definitely get it checked out - can you access your original bc surgeon or Oncologist? If not, I would suggest you see your GP and ask for a referral back to the hospital. It could be something like an enlarged lymph gland, but it needs to be checked.
Good luck,
Liz.
