How are you Deb, I had a right mastectomy in Jan 2010. this included all of the lymph glands. My scar is from mid chest to under my armpit and is level with the top of my left breast.
I have no Ideas on the why or the wherefor of it all - actually haven't even given it any thought. I'm due for my 2-year check up at the end of the month with the surgeon - might ask him just out of curiousity!!!
How are you travelling Deb re treatment? I was fortunate in that I didn't need chemo or radiotherapy, everything was contained in the boob and hadn't travelled anywhere else. I'm on Arimidex for a few more years yet - not fussed on the side effects but as long as I know what's causing the the new aches and pains I can "live" with that.
Take care of yourself ...
