I am about a year and 3 months out from my mastectomy and 8 months out from my exchange surgery. Today, when changing out of church clothes, I noticed a rather large bruise on my breast(the one with the Idc). Has anyone else had the same experience and should I be worried.?!!! Seems so far out from surgery to be having a problem. Thanks!

    Gapeach, it does seem far out from surgery for a problem! However, if it doesn't heal like a normal bruise (could you have bumped it hard?) then ask your doc to take a look.

    Best of luck.

    Thank you for your response. I went to see ps today. He feels like I most likely have an infection. He put me on an antibiotic and wants to see me again in a week. It's hard not to be a little paranoid, isn't it?!
