Worried about recurrence
Hi, I am a three year survivor of Stage 3C invasive lobular. It was in 10 lymph nodes. Recently I have been experiencing more fatigue than normal, numbness in my arms at night, more pain in my upper back and my muscles burn even after little effort. I also found lumps in my armpit on the non-cancer side. I have had a double mastectomy, one was prophylactic. At ultrasound was done and two atypical areas were found that were significantly echogenic. A tumor is not ruled out. I saw my oncologist and he sent me to the surgeon. I saw him today and tomorrow is a PET/CT scan. I knew the chances of my cancer coming back were pretty good, but I am still depressed over this. I know it may be nothing, but my gut feeling is usually pretty accurate.
