Breast pain

Mybctc

Hi does anyone get pain or odd sensations in the tumor area?

I am 65 her 2positive weak positive progesterone and supposedly negative estragen. These will be retested when I have a lumpectomy for a 2.5 cm tumor and some nodal involvement in February 1 . The profile was considered very rare so restest will be done.

I started chem tchp on Sept 18..was to be every three weeks but last treatment number six was held due to questionable toxcity several transfusion s etc. So past carboplatin and taxotere we're Dec 18. Also last perjeta Dec 11. Now on herceptin only every three weeks. Last herceptin January ,8 and next on January 29.

Questions still feel unwell. Is this left over chemo side effects or herceptin side effects?

When can I expect symptom abatement?

What's happening with the weird sensations in breast and breast pain? This did not occur on chemo and there's nothing that should cause the weird intermittent sensations in the breast tumor right below left nipple. Would appreciate your thoughts and feedback.thanks!!!!!

Michaela, I know how nerve racking it is. I was just diagnosed on 1/11 stage 2 grade 2. Yesterday it started to hurt. Its so tender to the touch. The pain goes from the breast to my back. Pain is bearable today though.

I hope your pain gets better.
