Thanks so much for your responses, it is much appreciated.
i think I very badly worded some of my message though, my breast care nurse said it isn't a sign of infection, therefore she didn't think it was of any concern.
Although @Ne had different surgery to me it does possibly explain this as one of my two lumps meant they did have to dig about a fair bit and remove a fair amount of breast.
My next step is GP this week, surgeon next week and then at some point learn what my chemo plan is going to be.
Thank you all again, the information I have received and support I have found through this network has been invaluable to me.
