It seems that I get very little or no odour under my left arm where I had the aux clearance - I could get away with no deodorant, but normal woofiness in right armpit. No BO smell in left armpit of shirt, woofy on the right. Maybe it's another one of those things that varies between individuals. I don't know if there is any interplay between sweat glands and nodes, eg proximity to node removal. I've certainly thought it curious to have one 'pit' smelly and the other one not. I've just had right Mx and 4 nodes removed on right, I'll be interested to see if there's any change on the right. :)
