@primek. Hope I have entered this correctly. I was interested in you reply about lymph nodes. I had 16 removed two weeks ago with 11 containing cancer. In 2015 I had a lumpectomy and when they checked the sentinel nodes (took five) all was clear. My diagnosis back in Aug 2015 was tnbc. Thought I was going well till I found a small lump while excercising and after a biopsy it showed to contain cancer! And I was doing so well.
a CT scan a few weeks ago showed two small "marks" on my right lung ( same side as I had the lumpectomy) so oncologist has requested another CT this Fri to see if they have grown big enough to biopsy. Also there is some confusion with my biopsy results. I was HER2- the first time around but this time it showed HER2 positive which the oncologist is having rechecked as she believes it's not possible to change from negative to positive.
so this week I have appointments every day.
a question .... I with the lymph node removal I am so very sore and uncomfortable especially under the arm. I have started the excises. Any idea if that is normal? The operation was just over two weeks ago.
thank you 🌹
