Can you feel your ILC and does it hurt (ache sometimes)?

In retrospect, I did feel a tingling sensation in the area where I had my 6 cm ILC tumor. The tingling sensation would only occur for a few seconds, and would not reoccur for say a month or longer. I should have gotten it checked out immediately when the tingling first began, because I had had a mastectomy and tram flap reconstruction 8-years prior and should not have had any feeling at all.

I thought that perhaps it was nerves regenerating after 8-years (wishful thinking, I suppose). My thoughts now are that the tingling I was feeling were cancer cells on the move. I wouldn't say that I had an ache though. Anyway, that was nearly 3-years ago, and I am doing fine.

Warrior - yes, I got ILC 8-years after a mastectomy and tram flap. The tumor was growing in the flap. I think that there may have been a few stray residual cells because my situation was so odd. I had breast reduction surgery at age 40 and I had never had a mammogram. The plastic surgeon called me three days after my reduction surgery and told me that the pathologist tested the breast tissue and found cancer. That floored me! Flash forward, I had a 3 cm tumor of high grade DCIS with comedo necrosis, and a mix of LCIS. My thoughts are that because of the reduction surgery there was no way to pinpoint exactly where the entire DCIS/LCIS was, even though the tissue is marked when they remove it. I was so upset that I didn't get a mammogram prior to surgery, but the plastic surgeon did not request one, and to be honest, I didn't think I was at risk for breast cancer. It did not run in my family and I was only 40. Wow...how much I have learned since then!

In a word, no.

I was shocked to find it after 5 clear regular annual mammos. BUT I did "sense" something was wrong in my body; hard to describe it but the summer before I found it, I just felt something was "dark" in me, and would eventually turn my world upside down. I was right.

started as an itch., 2 months later tingle, a month later pain ( the week of my annual Mammo) tumor was right under the itch. Other breast had tingles beginning. Had atypical changes starting there too

I never felt any pain at all.

I had absolutely no symptoms. No palpable lumps, no pain, no itch, no nipple discharge or inversion, no dimpling. Nothing. Even after viewing diagnostic mammo and ultra sound results the breast cancer specialist and surgeon were not able to feel my lumps. That's despite the fact that I had multi focal disease. I had 4 cancerous tumours; the largest turned out to be twice the size that it appeared on the imaging. Lobular is very sneaky.

pain is actually what sent me to the doctor. I had a mammo and ultrasound and was told it was nothing. Pain continued and I went to surgeon who did biopsy and that's gowns was diagnosed.... I still have lain. Just had my first chemo 6.30. Surgery will be after all chemo.

ok, I am going to ask this question here, hopefully someone comes back and shares their opinion.

I was DX.ed with ALH in my right breast back in 2009.. All has been quiet until this past summer( July) when an MRI showed some questionable findings on my left breast and a core biopsy followed...benign findings.

Now my right breast with the ALH has for the last two weeks, since the core biopsy....had a strange pulling sensation, also feels like something is squeezing it a bit...not constant, but still there never the less. No inverted nip, rather, just the opposite, standing at attention, which is unusual for this particular sister, when she stands at attention, I get a tingling feeling...almost like what one would feel during a cold breeze to exposed skin.

I have never felt anything like this before, will finally call the Doc tomorrow, but am amazed since nothing showed up on the July MRI on the right breast....just rather unusual

Anyone have similar sensations prior to your DX.
