Re: Lump in Breast and now one in armpit

Kim,
Love the fighting spirit for you daughter, the mama grizzly is in full force! I am in the second opinion camp because I do not like the second lump appearing under her arm. I suppose a cyst can form in the nodes, but less likely and that it is why its appearance is concerning to me. Be aggressive and do not let anyone make you feel you are being too pushy by being so. You know the battle is less formidable if the foe is caught early, so be proactive because no one cares more about your daughter than you. Please let us know what transpires. We'll pray and hope for cysts!!!
