I have a hard lump under my left breast on my bra line & I have been told it is a cancerous tumor however since my biopsy a week ago I am experiencing great discomfort on my left midriff which is swollen, (Smaller than my right midriff. Could this be part of the tumor?
Since you have a diagnosis of breast cancer on biopsy, your oncologist will now request for staging investigations including imaging of chest and an ultrasound scan of abdomen. Your midriff (abdominal) swelling can be due to cancer metastases and ultrasound scan will rule it out. Please discuss it with your oncologist.
