Here we go again?

I'm a bit worried. Last couple days my left arm has been aching. I thought, well, I need to do my exercises (post-lymphectomy/lumpectomy) more often No problem. THEN I saw an abrasion on my left breast and tonight I noticed my left breast is RED and sorta swollen, though my left arm is not. No fever.

Called the surgeon and she Rx'd some Keflex for me which I got tonight at a 24 hr pharmacy. IF this is Inflammatory Breast Cancer (which is the first thing that ran thru my mind when I saw how red it was) I am going to be HIGHLY PISSED

I can't belive this. If this comes back...aye yi yi. I will be so mad! I'll get a double mastectomy rather than go thru what I went thru last year.

DAMMIT.

I'm probably over-reacting.
