Scared - first 3-month check-up coming up

Hi,

I’m wondering whether anyone can help: I have my first 3-month check-up coming up and I’m scaring myself silly… I know that these fears are normal, but I can’t help myself!

More specifically I think I can feel a lump deep in my armpit now that I’ve regained some feeling after my lymph node removal. On the other hand I guess it could be internal scar tissue or maybe something else. Has anyone experienced this?

Thank you!
