Glad I found this website. When you are diagnosed with cancer (mine is in situ), I don't know about others but I felt so alone. I walked round the department in a daze/shock. For me I started having sharp shooting pains going down my right arm and in the side of right breast after complaining about pains under right side ribs like at the back of my breast for 18 months as well as having terrific night sweats.

I changed my GP in January 2016 cos I found previous GP didn't write all my symptoms down....so glad I did.  I had a vacuum biopsy done 5 weeks ago. Went back 2 weeks later for results and another mammogram, however as I was so badly bruised & they could not see the area, I had to wait another 3 weeks.

Today I had another mammogram only to be told the clip had moved so I then had to have another clip put in. I also have the lymph node in the crease of my right arm keep swelling up and my right arm constantly aches.  Does anyone know if this is related to the breast cancer as I can't seem to get an answer off anyone.

I also asked for the result of the oestrogen test to see if it had migrated, again no answer.  I just feel left out on a limb.

Love and a hug to all likewise sufferers
