Paula- you okay? Hot firemen are a total bonus to any bad situation.
Cami- love the photo.
I decided I am working from home next week. My client is abusing everybody on this project, and as a self employed person, I have options to work from home. My doctors told me when I went back to work after everything that happened to be self managing and modulate if the stress became to much. To opt to work from home if I needed to, because I can. So I sent my client a text and will let her know. This is what we do in the new normal, we take good care of ourselves and don't let others have control of our well being. I voted myself off the island!!!!!

Don't know where to go with this but I am a member of several threads including this one. Well I had my TE exchange on my right breast on November 26th, 2013, and a failed attempt on my left breast to lift it. My PS said he would do a lift and liposuction in 4 months after the right implant has settled. Here's my issue--- I right at the year of my Cancerversary and called YESTERDAY to get an appointment to have a mammogram for my left breast. I off handed mentioned that it has been itching around the nipple for at least 6 weeks. The tech would not make my appointment and told me to go back to my doctor--any of my doctors--and get a diagnosis plus ultrasound referral. That frightened me so I looked up itchiness and breast and it mention it could be a sign of breast cancer. Now I am scared to death for my left breast. I have an emergency appointment to have a regular check and to get a referral today after work. Do I have anything to worry about? I may post this in another thread too because I am anxious now and sort of scared and need someone to respond quickly.

Dwill if u have any signs of anything they want u to see a Dr. before they do any mammo, don't borrow trouble, but u have to be vigilant and see u'r Dr. as u seem to be doing. They certainly want to make sure everything is OK--Stay away from google now--just take it as the Dr. wants to make sure. That's all .

dwill it can be any number of things but itchiness there can only be examined by ultrasound so this is good they are doing it fast,

Camilegal, Google scared me after I read the signs of cancer as itchiness. Never knew itchiness of the nipple area was one of the signs-instant worry.. Before reading Google, I thought the itching was from the healing around the areola where the doctor cut but now it is healed and still itching. Okay, I'll try not to borrow trouble. I keep telling myself it was time for my mammogram anyhow and this will just be more thorough. Seeing my GP in two hours for a preliminary check and she'll send me to the Mammogram Center. Don't want to be stress through the weekend, though. Trying to relax and be realistic about this. Thanks for the advice Cami.

Jazzy, so glad you could choose to work from home. The pueblo picture is wonderful. I have looked at it several times and have seen different aspects each time.
dwill, hope you get a good answer from your doc.

Jazzy, speaking of Hot Firemen, on the day of my last AC, I asked the nurse if they were going to put on silly hats, and sing & dance for me. She said, " no, we'll do that after your 12 weekly Taxol." I said, "If I have to wait that long, I want CUPCAKES & HOT FIREMEN!!!
Btw...I love the tv show, Chicago Fire!

I just got back from the Stephanie Center. Appointment was with Carmen, the nurse practioner. I showed her the tiny lump above my surgery site, and she found a second one.
She went to get my onco, Dr. Mrozek, who was there within 2 minutes. I told her, "If this is another cancer, I'm going to be so angry!" She said, "and I will be angry too!"
They called downstairs and got me right in for an ultra sound. I only waited a few minutes to be seen.
Thank God it's only scar tissue! Hallelujah!
Nobody likes scarring, but after BC, scar tissue is excellent!
I so love the Stephanie...everything under one roof. Hugs from my Dr. and nurse/pract.
My doctors, surgeon & onco work together. They're the DYNAMIC DUO!0 -
Soteria, so happy that you got help quickly and that the lumps were nothing bad

Paula good news. Both my sets of Drs offices were right in the hospital so that would happen to me too, they'd just make a call and zap there I was and back in the office with the answers that was the best--no waiting to think about it at all.

Soteria- sharing her good new here on this thread. I saw it on another too. You have had quite the week my friend!
Dwill- I have had itching in my breast too periodically. I had surgery on both sides and do know you can have itching in your breast after having surgery. Itching is a sign of healing. And it sounds like you had some surgery around that nipple. It can also be a sign of Pagets disease, a type of breast cancer. There seem to be other signs that go with the itching too.
Mine has come and gone and not remained an ongoing problem. But I pay attention to these things as you do as well. I am glad you are getting it checked out and prayers for a good outcomes.
I start my next 6 month follow up next Friday, beginning with the breast surgeon, and feel the anxiety building. Part of my need to stay away from the stressful client site right now too. I seem to think it will get easier with time, but probably not....

For me itchjing was a blessing. I was watching a movie and got this itch on the outside of my r breast. As I scratched it I felt something hard under the area. It was a Friday evening. I left a message at Breast surgeons office and she had me in on Monday Morning, biopsy, ultrasound, 25, I kid you not Mammos all in one day. I left for Seattle the next day tp find a house as we were moving! Dr called me on Thursday with diagnosis and the next week I had surgery back in Illinois. . I continued treatment in Seattle at SCCA.

Cami, Jazzy, Soteria, Spookiesmom, Lily and others, I made it to see my GP on Friday. She did not feel any lumps but believed like Jazzy that it could be the healing of the incision line around the areola even though it been more than two months. She also said it could have been an allergy to something. She gave me a ointment to use but did order an diagnosis plus ultrasound. This made me feel better since we never felt anything with the right breast either and it was only through ultrasound and other test that the cancer in the right breast was found. Will be following through on Monday to make an appointment for the diagnosis with ultrasound.

Sounds like you're on the right track. Hope it isjust an allergy!

Dwill- things sound like they are moving in the right direction. I hope you get more information from the ultrasound to put your mind at ease.

Dwill actually sounds pretty good, so they will make sure. good.
