  • Heya and welcome to the forums. Call the helpline 0808 800 4040 to chat to a nurse this week as soon as it re opens. Good luck. You can surely do this. 

  • Hi Mary_W,

    A very warm welcome to the forum.

    I am sorry to hear about the pain in your arm pit and hope that your doctor can give you a solution soon. Another question to ask your doctor might be whether they think that the pain could be caused by a lymph node. It is unusual to have pain associated with breast cancer, but not impossible, so just as well to make sure.

    I look forward to your update. We are always here for you.

    Kind regards,
