I have develped a lump on my breast that is raised, red and itches.  It is on the site where Ihad a scar from something (biopsy, I think).  It is scaring me very much.  I will go see breast surgeon on Wed.  Haven't told anyone expect my bc sisters.  Sinking feeling, but hoping it is nothing.  Any thoughts?  Thank you

Good for you for going to a breast surgeon, and paying attention to your body.  I am expecting you to get good news on Wednesday (or as soon after that as you get a report.).  Probably nothing but a rash or bug bite, but you are smart to check.   Let us know.  And, trite I know, but you are taking appropriate action so try not to worry or go to the dark side.

I had a few worries post treatment--nothing to see there after all (but I go everything checked out). 

take care

we do honey, believe me we have all been there.  Do something to divert yourself, have a glass of wine, relax.  . . . you will get it checked out and taken care of.  It will be o.k.

Dear lovemyfamilysomuch:

It's totally understandable that you are scared, but you are doing the right thing by having it checked.  It probably is related to the biopsy - my PS told me itching is, to the body, a mild form of pain.  Try not to anticipate the worst.

Be good to you -

I just wanted to say hang in there.  Let us know what you find out.  And it is very normal to feel scared.

God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; the courage to change the things I can; and the wisdom to know the difference

Thank you so much for all your good wishes. Right now I am in denial.  Can't be cancer!  I won't let it be cancer!  Ican't go through this again.
