Rash
My last post I was asking if anyone experienced a rash over the breast & lymph node area which has been operated on.
I was told by my GP yesterday that it is the cancer which has spread to the skin. I had heard that this can happen but was very upset.
It’s three years from my first bout of TNBC I’m about to start chemo Thurs 15th. Nov.
Thank goodness I have a beautiful supportive husband and family.
Unfortunately we had to cancel a cruise to Tasmania which we had to cancel leaving this Sunday.
O well.

- Sorry for late reply TripleNegMama. My surgeon did put me on antibiotic and the GP did biopsy.....all clear.
anyways the silly rash has gone away thank goodness. Always something to bug us is isn't there?
Take care 🌹 - I had a similar rash and it turned out that it was early cellulitis due to having lymph nodes removed and damage from radiation - if it comes and goes it could be that - antibiotics would help - a biopsy would confirm if it is skin mets.
- Yahoo. That's awesome news.
- Brilliant news @LITHGOW1950!
- Wonderful news Lithgow1950
- Fantastic! That is excellent news. K xox
- Update on my "rash". Finally my oncologist returned from her holiday and she did not think it was the cancer spread to my skin. She felt it was either from the Radiothreapy (received 2 yrs ago) or as a result from the lymph nodes recently removed.
Anyway....it's now gone. 🌹🌹🌹 - dear @jennyss. Thank you so much for your help I'm sorry I have taken so long to reply. I have had a few iPad problems! Anyways I'll give it a go and let you know or you will send if I have caught on!!
- Dear @LITHGOW1950,
I am not a computer whiz, but here goes!To put pictures and photos in your messages:
You can file photos and pictures in folders in 'My pictures' on your computer. To find good pictures/cards to save; go to the internet, type in eg 'best wishes' , then click on images in the menu bar across the top. When you see a picture you would like to save, right click, copy, open up 'my pictures' and paste.
When you want to include a picture in your BCNA network message; start the message, click on the 'attach image' button in the tool bar just above your message (it is a square with a mountain in it) , then 'choose file' with a double click,
and 'hooray', it might have worked! LOL. Sorry I can't explain any better, but have fun and get someone to help you if you can. Let me know how you go. - That's great news @LITHGOW1950 let's hope the oncologist is on the ball and that diagnosis sticks. Uncertainty is awful, particularly when you get wildly conflicting advice (or guesses)
