      I used to visit here years ago. Had stage 2 modular myeloma I removed from my back in 2017. Centinal node and 5 others removed under my left arm all clear. 17 years later I noticed a lump under my left arm, have just had ultra sound, mammogram… It is at the edge of the breast tissue. Hopefully I find out tomorrow when I can see a surgeon. Has anyone else had something like this.

              Thank you. I was diagnosed in 2000. I noticed the lymph node under my arm a couple of weeks ago

                Hi Janice, thinking of you at this time.  I was also diagnosed 17 years ago and have been on this board a long time. Stage III melanoma in one lymph node in groin with extracapsulary spread.  Whatever the diagnosis is, we are all hereto support you.  Time will never change that.
