Big welcome to this network-yes,it all happens so quickly once you find a lump. You don't get much time to get over the shock and then make difficult decisions.After I had a mastectomy,I got a seroma on the scarline which had to be syringed off twice a week for 5 weeks and then it settled down.I don't know if you have fluid collecting under the arm or around the implant?There isn't much you can do about it - it just happens after surgery sometimes.It may need draining off but you should contact your surgeon or breast care nurse tomorrow and get it checked.If it was an infection then you might have a high temp and a red area on the scarline and not feel very well?In anycase,you need it checked before chemo starts.Best wishes and big hug, Tonya xx
