Hi Lauren,
My symptoms were tiredness, enlarged lymph nodes at the base of my neck and just above my collar bone on side of original bc, and a rash over the lymph near the neck; the skin and lymph were biopsied, and by the time I started Herceptin/Navelbine I also had a mass under my right breast and in the breast itself.
Be aware of unusual tiredness, and any odd lumpiness or skin lesions, as those were my first symptoms.
With that said, TRY NOT TO WORRY! It doesn't change anything, and diminishes your enjoyment of life. Every day is precious, whether we have cancer or don't. I wish I had lived my life before cancer with as much appreciation as I now do, and I have to laugh whenever I think of all the little things that used to bother me that now seem so small. Live, love and be happy!
Hugs, Lolly
