I had my surgery at the end Of March ( WLE and SNB - the blue dye was used to locate the sentinel nodes ) , started on Tamoxifen in May and had 3 weeks of rads in June . About 6 weeks ago I noticed a small yellow crust on the nipple and a little bit to the side of the nipple of the breast treated. As I was at my Gps later that week ( problems with spotting and the Tam ) I mentioned it to her.She looked and said she didn't know what it was and cutting a long story short I was referred back to the breast clinic on the fast track system. I saw the consultant there about 3 weeks ago . He wasn't concerned. He had a look and feel and said he thought it looked fine but he didn't do an ultrasound and I didn't have a mammo. He said the breast could take up to 2 years to recover from the treatment and I suppose the impression I had was that the crusting in his opinion was liklely to be part of that. This week I had an even smaller amount of the same thing. I don't feel I can go to the Gp again at this stage. I was planning to leave it and monitor it over the next weeks but I wondered if anyone has experienced the same ?
