Hi Adrien,

That's awful! Not only do you have to deal with a new tumour in your breast, you have the pain on top of that. It's unfair, and I wonder why they can't give you something for the pain?

Also, I remember reading that there is a benefit to removing the tumour even though there are other tumours present. So perhaps you could look into that, because I gather from your words that this is what you would like to consider. Maybe a second opinion?

Hugs

Jacqueline
