Hi all

Just found out that I have a recurrence in my chest wall. The tumour is about 19mm. This is my fourth time with BC so am trying to research what treatment I can have.. Has anyone had a resection of a similar tumour? I am worried because when they biopsied the tumour they pierced my chest wall and I ended up in hospital for a week with a pneumothorax so I am not sure how easy it is to remove a tumour in the chest wall.

Anyone had a similar experience?

Thanks

    Go over to the stage 4 forum and ask your question under the topic "If you are not stage 4 but have questions" I know I have heard situations like yours discussed there. I think somebody there will answer you. Am not trying to freak you out or suggest this is serious--- just that you are not getting answers here under Stage 3, and those ladies on 4 are a wealth of information. Weesa
