Hi I was diagnosed with early stage breast cancer in my right breast a year last May and had a lumpectomy. I have felt like something is under my armpit ( no pain) but on checking both armpits the right on is very swollen any suggestions please.

Hi, what treatment did you have following surgery? Did they remove a lymph node? Just to be on the safe side you should chat to your GP about it....put your mind at rest.... xxx
Hi I had a lumpectomy, nothing done with lymph nodes and I take anas trozole daily
Just out of interest, how you getting on with anastrozole? I will be on those soon and the side effects scare me silly! Xx
Sometimes get headache but my joints ache a bit and a little weight gained
Been on them about 18 month and have to stay on them for at least 5 years. I went to see my Macmillan nurse this afternoon and she has booked me for a one stop appointment on 4th Feb after examining me.
Good that you saw your nurse, fingers crossed it's a simple thing. Yes, I too will be on them 5 years.....did your hair thin?
Did you have radiotherapy? Xx
Yes it has. Comes out when been in shower etc but continues to grow.
Oh ...... best of luck on 4 th Feb.....let us know how it goes?
