Bump on rib- lymph node ?

Options

Hi all,

Just wondering if anyone has ever found a lump on their abdomen, possibly in their lymph system around their ribs. Today I was just scratching about midway between my armpit and breast area, about an inch down, on my cancer side and felt a little lump. Doesn't hurt, pea sized, medium hard. I'm only a little concerned because my gyn just did a CBC panel and my WBC and MO numbers were a little elevated. That could be allergies or a mild infection (I'm constantly injuring myself,) but I'd like to know if anyone has experienced mets or benign tumors in your lymph system this way. I didn't notice it before my appointment or I would have mentioned it to her.

I'm 8 years out now, just stopped tamoxifen last September. I hate feeling paranoid, but, having cancer can do that to you, I guess.

I'm going to check it every day for the next week. If it doesn't disappear, I am definitely calling my MO, but just wanted to see if anyone has experienced this type of bump/lump.


Thanks
