Just checking in: over the past year or so, 6-7 years after my initial diagnosis I have become aware of a growing swelling of flab on the side of my mastectomy that fills my armpit and extends out of my sleeveless dresses. Since I don't get U/S and Mammogrammed on that side, and missed my final 5yr checkup because of Covid 19, I am wondering if it could be a local recurrence or Lymphodema. Has anyone had a recurrence that looked like that and was in that area? Or Lymphodema beginning 6yrs after Sentinel Node surgery (plus an nodeless-first-cube cut out as first shot at removing the sentinel node)
