Hi All,

I woke up last week and both my breasts on either side near my ribs hurt like I'd done a big chest workout at the gym. I went to the Dr a few days later as both sides were swollen, there is no redness or itching and they arnt hot so I don't think it's an infection. They arnt rock hard but they are noticeably bigger. 

I called my surgeon and he said my implants (2015) are textured and that there is a risk of this type of cancer which I hadn't heard of. I have health anxiety and now I'm in major panic mode. Im so anxious I cant function or sleep. My Dr has been good and referred me to the breast clinic and I had full blood tests done Monday which showed inflammation but white/red blood cells, liver, thyroid etc are all normal.

A few questions- can blood test pick up abnormalities with this type of cancer?

Is it common for this to suddenly appear and in both breasts at the same time? 

I guess I'm looking for reassurance. I have also requested to join the fb group.

Thanks
