I am 20 and was diagnosed with a Borderline Phyllodes tumour when i was 19. I had this removed about 2 months ago (they were certain it was a fibroadenome). After removal i was diagnosed and had a second surgery within the month to get better margins. Since this surgery i did some research and found out that they often reoccur. This is something i am worried about because im not too sure if i would realise if i had a lump in the same place again. Recently the area where i had a lumpectomy has felt quite hard and not like the rest of my breast, i know this is probably scar tissue but how would i know if it was a lump? Also should i be going to the doctors more frequently now to get my breasts checked? I gave been given a follow up appointment next year but it is over the phone? If anyone can give me some advice that would be great:)
