I had a mastectomy & implant reconstruction in January I have been healing well. Then last week

My breast just didn’t feel right it started to fell sore.

I had a hospital & My oncologist exzamimed me and said it felt a little warm but nothing to worry about.

I was given antibiotics just incase.

Last night I felt 2 lumps one tiny that felt very sharp the other larger & felt fatty.

I was wondering if anyone has experienced anything seminar?

I will call my care nurse as soon as as I’m a little

    I also had a bmx with implants in January too. I have started to notice a slightly raised area of soreness on my right (cancer) side between the two biopsy scars I still have. I’m keeping an eye on it, but imagine that area has gone through a lot recently and it may just be extra scar tissue buildup. My oncologist wasn’t bothered by it. Not surprised as there’s not much to see at the moment, more just what I can feel. I would just say keep an eye on it. You’ll know in yoif it changes or if it needs another look.

    thank you so much for your reply

    I have contacted my doctor who has told me one of the lumps which is sharp could be stitches the other could just be fatty tissue.

    I have an appointment to see her tomorrow & will ask for a scan.

    It just doesn’t feel right & im just a little anxious after what we have been through it’s only natural.

    thank you so much for your reply.

    I saw my doctor who was not concerned with the lump she said it could just be a fatty mass & the stitches could have just been the sharp pain I was feeling.

    I am going to have a scan just to make sure all is definitely ok

    She also explained while I was healing nicely on the out side I still had a lot of healing to so In side which would take time so I would have a little Pain for a while.
