Calcium deposits?

ARmom4

Hi everybody! I'd like to pick your brains. I've got something going on and I was wondering if anybody has heard of this before. I have had several calcium deposits pop up since I was diagnosed. One appeared next to my mastectomy scar on the cancer side right after surgery. 3 have appeared on my face in the last few months and I just noticed a new smaller one on the same breast.

Has anyone heard anything about calcium deposits and Tamoxifen? Or after chemo and herceptin? Or, since my mind goes there, recurrence?

Could it be thyroid related? I also have Autoimmune Thyroiditis.

My question is more about calcium deposits on the surface of the skin anywhere on the body.

I am sure you have already googled calcium deposits on the skin. It is something you should get checked out - there seem to be a number of possible causes.
