So I felt a pea sized nodule below my incision line under my armpit early fall. Dr. Brower felt it and was confident it was just scar tissue. I followed up with Dr. Patel, my breast surgeon a few weeks ago and she also felt the nodules (theres 2 now). Dr. Patel agreed they felt like scar tissue. She then said, “do you feel this?” She placed my fingers underneath my armpit/pec area and I felt this really thin flat lumpy thing hahah (so hard to describe). I couldn’t believe I missed this area considering I do self exams like every day! At the end of the appointment I asked if we could do an ultrasound now versus waiting. Dr. Patel agreed due to my age and how aggressive my cancer was….
So my ultrasound is today at 3:30pm. I’ve been super calm with good vibes…. until this morning. I was snapping at the kids for no good reason, my heart was racing, ughhh IM SO NERVOUS all of a sudden. I think it’s a PTSD moment.. I mean the last ultrasound I had was 3 years ago and they found a huge ass breast tumor that was either benign or cancerous. It was the scariest day of my life not knowing if I had cancer or not.
I need to get it together and stay positive. Worrying is not going to help anything.
Please say a prayer for me!!! I would greatly appreciate it 🙏
Love you all!
