Hey dear, I studied medicine and have breastcancer too. In Germany we call it "local lymphatic metastasis" which is NOT considered as stage four cancer. So it's basically a healable, "local/regional" metastasis if near the breast ... Good luck! ❤

@@CarolinaBreastFriends thank you

I am not an oncologist, but my brother is. Your weight is good, you could be a little slimmer, but it's not a problem. For your overall health, use a BMI calculator on your phone or computer, and make sure that you keep your BMI in a normal, or slightly overweight range. (Slightly overweight people on average live longer than do underweight people. But the best is the normal range.). You need a biopsy of that new lump. It is probably not a recurrence of your breast cancer. My brother says that 85% of breast lumps are non-cancerous. But you should get it checked, so that you know what it is. Whatever it is , it will probably be a good idea to have it removed, so that it doesn't bother you. I'm in my mid-sixties, and I had a benign tumor removed from my left breast twenty years ago. Even though it was non-cancerous, it was continuing to grow, which made me uncomfortable. I've never had a recurrence since (it was a fibroadenoma). On the small chance that your lump is cancerous, it is probably not HER2 positive. The most common breast cancer in your age group, is estrogen-positive, HER2 negative, which would mean that you would only need a lumpectomy, and possibly a little radiation. This type of cancer rarely needs chemo to stop it. So get the lump checked. I doubt that it is an aggressive cancer, like the one you had ten years ago. But you need to find out what it is, so you can discuss your treatment options with your doctor. Hope this helps! A petite little woman like you has many good years left, I'm sure! Who knows, you may be a Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue model at 81, like Martha Stewart. (you can be in the special Petite issue).
