Sentinel node biopsy
I have a simple question. I had a lumpectomy with a reexcision for wider margins and a sentinel node biopsy almost 2 years ago. The node was negative. In the past 2 weeks I have experienced pain and stiffnes in that arm. At first I thought maybe it was phlebitis because it follows a narrowline from my wrist to my axilla. Now I am wondering if it is possible to get lymphedema from that sentinel node biopsy. Any one have an answer?
Thanks,
Marlys
