I, at age 58, had a lumpectomy last April. This February mammogram looks
free of cancer, and I had a (rather late) follow-up with the April surgeon, also this February. Outlook is good; I am elated. Still, I have some soreness in that breast. It seems like, perhaps, the few nodes that were removed might let fluid collect? Or, I have a very physical job and some tissue is no longer there. The surgeon did an exam and everything seemed good.
