Community Member
a month agoI am 6 years out had a double mastectomy, chemo, hormone therapy and recently found a lump under my arm in my armpit I have had a cold, seen my oncologist had bloodwork. It was good except for ALT was elevated but I had been taking Tylenol. Ultrasound is scheduled next week. I can't sleep and completely TERRIFIED ! The fear never leaves.

a month agoThe fear that comes with finding something new after cancer treatment is completely understandable, and many in this community know exactly how scary that waiting period can be. It's encouraging that your recent bloodwork looked good overall and that you're staying on top of things with your oncologist - having that ultrasound scheduled is the right next step to get answers. This community is here for you during this anxious time, and many members have navigated similar scares and can offer support while you wait for your results.
