6 yrs ago diagnosed with st2 lobular, no nodes. Bmx...chemo but radiation not recommended. On. Femara..Found a smooth , moveable lump today in the cancer breast..about size of a pea, kind of flat. My husband s getting honored tomorrow night for his work, son coming home for spring break March 9th. I have my oncology apt on the 18th. Please, if anyone has had something like this that was B9, please share...I cannot handle someone telling me the same symptoms were cancer...I cant share this right now as it would just kill them..would not be fair...Im desperate...please somene give me hope! Just to get through the next two weeks..please.

    Hello Thereseanne

    I'm sorry you're going through this. After finishing treatment, I had lots of lumps and bumps. The lumps in the breast turned out to be cysts. The other lumps were benign granulomas.

    Hoping for the same for you.

    I found a small pea-size lump last fall, 2 years after my initial diagnosis, chemo, and BMX. I was pretty upset, but my lovely BS did an immediate look with her trusty ultrasound. NOT cancer! It was a small lump of fat against the chest wall. Whew! Apparently, this is not unusual. But i get your concern. Once around with breast cancer is enough!

    Best of luck to you.

    A moveable lump is a good sign it isn't cancer.....but please follow up afterwards. Seems we are always scared once diagnosed with cancer. But best to have it seen and not guess. (((HUGS))))

    I had an issue 5 years ago my nipple started to grow and it aimed left. I was so scared because my first BC was ILC Stage IV Her 2 positive but triple neg I had two years of chemo FEC-D then a year of trastuzumab I thought this is it it's back. They did surgery and biopsy and it wasn't cancer it was just weird tissue growing . It's hard to wait torture because facing this is tough. But it's doable. So much as changed, in 10 years cancer is managed better now. I'll say a prayer and hope your ok. I'm so busy now bought a restaurant with my son. I'm staying focused and busy. I hope a I helped you keep posting the women are wonderful on this site. They got me through the first time. Hugs.

    Lumps arealways very stressful. Perhaps you can be seen sooner to hopefully ease your fears.
