Monday, I noticed a small (about the size of an English pea) hard lump on the right side of my chest. Four years ago I had my right breast removed because of breast cancer. This lump is on the scar. Has anyone ever had this happen to them? If so, was it scar tissue or had the cancer come back? I as having this removed tomorrow.
