Anyone had cancer return while taking hormone therapy meds?

It was different. My first was a small lump near my armpit, where doctors tell you not to forget to check. The second time I felt deep itching, kinda localized, not far from my first lump location. The itching was enough to wake me at night, but I ignored it…until it showed up on my annual mammogram as little ‘salt specks’.

Sorry for a million questions…..
I have noticed some itching but it’s kind of been in different areas of my breast, not in the spot that I feel this new “lump.” Did yours only itch in that area?
Did they biopsy it first or did you just have the Mastectomy surgery?
And Since it was in the same breast as before, what treatment did you do? Did you have radiation the first time? I have heard you can only have radiation to an area once.
