I did go and see the other therapist and she agreed my current LE therapist is doing everything she should be. She was great, super sweet and we did some different measuring but all in all, no need to drive 40minutes oneway to see her. I did have her feel a lump I found on the outskirts of the axilla area. She said call your onc to be safe. So that started a roller coaster of events. i found another lump, saw onc, he wants them removed. And yes they are on my LE side. Saw the surgeon last Tuesday and he agreed, need to remove them. We actually found another noduel so total of 3. He said he isnt worried to much about the one on the outside of the axilla but the 2 in the axilla area are worrisome but he did say they are a little hard to be lymph nodes. He is a very skilled surgeon and aware of LE and I have all my tools to try and keep things under control.

Just need some prayers that this is just scare tissue from my radiation. I am still awake at 1230am and my alarm is going off at 445. I have cleaned, organized, paid bills and did my nails.
