Okay. So there has been a link with dna that has a higher breast cancer risk being the same gene responsible for people who have stinky armpits and soft earwax. It is not a sign of breast cancer ...just a coincidence it's on the same gene. This is people who always have goopy earwax and stinky armpits...not a sudden change. Link below
https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2009/06/090601102025.htmAs to the understm odour being new. There could be any number of reasons but being stressed is a big one.
Here's a little article on it, and similar ones appear on Dr Google causes, most definitely not bc related (but maybe the stress of waiting for f/u just might)
As stress releases more of the pheromones that can cause odour ...different from normal b.o.

Sudden goopy earwax is more likely an ear infection that is easily treated ...can be with drops or antibiotics.
Hope all goes well with your mammogram follow up...scanxiety is normal following bc. Take care and let us know the outcome. Kath x
