The only other issue about my DM is that because they performed sentinel lymph node as part of DM I also have small a dip in my underarm. This may not sound like such a big deal, but it's kind of hard to shave your underarms and parts of my underarm area is slightly numb which causes me concern - so I don't use a blade razor, I use an electric razor which because of the dips is sometimes a little hard to shave. But that is a minor issue compared to the peace of mind I have knowing there is minimal chance of getting recurrence in second breast.

I had 3 nodes out and the dip is not something i expected. It is one of those things that I was never told about, they were not cancerous.
