Thank you all. You are right Brian, it does look like the 4th (I think?) picture on your link, except that my lump is dissected by the scar whereas yours appears to be slightly above the scar. Whew. I had a rest for a bit this afternoon and when I awoke it seemed to have gone down a bit but as the evening progresses it is getting larger again. Sigh!

I will keep the appointment on Monday a.m. with the surgeon but from the symptoms and your experiences I expect that I will hear exactly what Brian said - lymphatic system looking for a new route to China!

Thanks all. I will keep you posted. Luv you guys. What a relief it is to be able to spill my guts to you all and be met with such understanding. You guys are the ultimate!

Hugs

Donna
