Lump after mastectomy

[drivinmecrazy]

I had a lumpectomy followed by a mastectomy 2 years ago.
I opted not to have adjunctive chemo because thought it had been removed.
I have five weeks of radiotherapy.
all good. Or so I thought.
recently I’ve felt a lump on the scar line close to my chest.
I’m really not one to make a fuss so is it worth giving the breast unit a call, or is it most likely just scar tissue?
sounds daft but I’ve been putting it off as I’m going overseas tomorrow to see my elderly mum.
its probably scar tissue, right??

Call them. Better to get it checked out.

Also it’s not making a fuss. It’s what you’re meant to do if you find a lump especially given the history. Hopefully it’s scar tissue but you can’t know and nor can anyone on here.

It may very well be scar tissue or something else benign but absolutely get it checked out. This is what the breast team are there for. They would rather see you and find that everything is fine than risk missing something that needs treatment. Fingers crossed for you x
