Title: Breast problem and sweatshirt
Post by: Cazzie on June 25, 2013, 04:44:03 PM

Hi l have not posted for some time and following surgery to remove breast ducts one year ago to the day, l find myself in another quandary.  The night sweats have returned with a vengeance so back to low strength her estrogen evorel patches, not making any difference, now l have terrible pain in my right breast jaggy and stinging, then noticed in mirror what was like a white bite on side of one breast, it has now gone a bit red, feels jaggy and itchy and am petrified to go back to dr, but going on Thursday.  We also have a lot of stress with two critically ill elderly parents could that be causing this...any ideas or help would be appreciated.

Thank you so much...cazzie

Cazzie - It really is sensible to see your Dr, then you will know what is going on, and set your mind at rest.
You are doing the right thing.

Best get it checked out Cazzie, if only to put your mind at rest.
Could it be an insect bite?
Let us know how you get on.

Try not to worry.  It might be a local reaction to a nylon thread in the shirt.  Can you go around with as little clothing on as possible?
