Hi

I am 3 months post deip. I have found 2-3 swollen nodes at the top of my left breast and 1 lump size of a small marble around 5:00 on my left breast close to my sternum. My left side was my effected side but had a bilateral mx. Has anyone else had lumps like this after surgery?

Having 3rd treatment of FEC next week

    it is very likely necrosis. Very common and they will take care of that in phase 2. Areas of necrosis are hard areas and can be any size and shape.I'd call your PS who did the DIEP and let them know about the areas in question and see what he'd like you to do from here.
