I am curious about my lower arm growing large and below
the skin it's much darker than normal. I have Her2 positive breast cancer, I a double deep lumpectomy then received FEC-D then rapid radiation (great and should be the norm for all b c patients), then I found out that I was Her2 positive, I was first diagnosed as Triple Negative. So I had Herceptin for almost a year, ended up with neutropenia so I stopped the hercpetin as it gave me side effects from the start of treatments. Now my arm the opposite side of where the bc occured is enlarged and becoming painful. I went to see an Onc, she was very busy and told me to watch to see if it grows and gets harder? Well it's growing, I have an ultrasound and a bi mam set up in three weeks time, but I am wondering if there is anything I can do to prevent the mass from becoming larger it is becoming painful to type and hold onto a novel to read. In a nutshell I am asking what the likely hood of this being cancer is, it does not look like Merkell cancer. I have a slightly high temp constant at about 99.1 or 99.2, not really high but constant and I am sweating profusly, yuck. Any ideas. thank you cancergirll
