Breast cancer mole

I was diagnosed with lobular breast cancer in 2020  & had lumpectomy & radiotherapy . I noticed a tiny pin *** mark on skin where cancer was about 2 years ago but dismissed it . I’ve had follow up mammograms & and examinations & no one said anything . It’s now grown , is black raised & scabby . I have sent a photo to my breast care nurses but wondered has anyone else experienced anything like this ? Does any one know of any research around  breast radiotherapy & melanomas ? Obviously I am aware they lobular breast cancer has weird secondaries but not sure about melanomas .Thanks in advance

  • Thank you so much for taking the trouble to reply it really means a lot . Only those living with this truly understand our anxieties . I can’t help but feel there’s still a lot around breast cancer , especially lobular that is either not properly researched or not acted on , like moles . 

    I think it’s key to go with your instincts , if we’re concerned we need to ask why is it OK ? Explain how you know .

    All the best to you x
