Hi!

I am an 8 year survivor! Whooo hooo!! I went to see my doc today because I have had swelling (actually a lump right above my clavicle) on my non-cancer side....I understand that IBC can occur with the swollen clavicle as a symptom....is there anyone out there that has had a similar issue....I have had two battles and won each time but it was with my left breast....and now it is my right side....no other lumps...issues ....just the swelling....will have results back tomorrow ....doc seemed nervous ....ugh

    Flocolan-

    We want to welcome you to our community here at BCO! We hope you find this to be a supportive place when you need it most!

    We're crossing our fingers that the lump turns out to be nothing, and that your 8 years becomes 9, and then 10, and then on and on. Please keep us posted, we'll be thinking of you!

    Hi there, swelling above clavicle is common, I have it on the left side which is my cancer side, had a biopsy there and there were some cancer cells but a lot of the swelling is swollen lymph nodes which there are apparently lots of in this area. Hope this is helpful.
