Hi Everyone, I just wondered whether anybody has had a similar experience to this, and what the outcome was: basically I had a swollen axillary lymph node (towards top of breast on armpit side). Was sent to the breast clinic where they did an ultrasound. The lymph node I found looked normal, however there was another one lurking under my armpit, which looked 'abnormal'. So they biopsied that one. Biopsy came back clear, but they are still worried about the abnormal appearance of the node, so want it out to examine. I'm booked in for surgery and more worried about not waking up from general anaesthetic than I am about having cancer. Anyway I was wondering whether anyone else had gone down this pathway and how likely it is for cancer to be found in the lymph node excision, when biopsy already showing as clear? Also, I am breastfeeding and wondering whether that could affect the appearance of a lymph node in ultrasound? Thanks! Jo
