The scar tissue from my lumpectomy got harder and larger in the last couple of months. It was all clear last December. Just had a mammo, ultrasound and needle biopsy today which was positive for 2 cm. cancer tumor and I am stunned and dazed. First diagnosed 2012, her2+, ER+ Grade 2 idc... Had TCH, lumpectomy, 1 year Herceptin, 5 years Femara, no family history. Active, fit, all organic, gave up sugar/wine, excercise daily...curcumin broccoli sprouts meditation etc etc.

    I'm sorry you're going through this. I had a similar situation - mine was a local/regional recurrence of my original BC.

    BC is so pesky. I felt like I couldn't do treatment again, but I did, and it's been okay so far. Hang in there, and I hope you get some answers soon.
