Jumping at shadows
I think that I am definitely still at the stage where every little bump and bruise is going to make me think that my cancer has come back.
I have a lump in the back of my throat that was there pre-treatment. It was not included in the field of radiation so if it is cancerous it will have to be treated later. The oncologist said that it could be cancerous but if it is not causing any problems I should not worry about it yet. I have also noticed over the last two weeks two patches on the skin on the outside of my left breast that look like bruises. They have not gone away again though.
One of the presentations of MALToma is on the skin as bruise like lesions. I am probably just jumping at shadows. I have another appointment on the 13th of October. Surely it won't kill me between now and then!!!!!
