I had my 1st phyllodes tumor removed in 1999 or 2000 in right breast and benign. went for mamo's and ultrasounds every year after that for at least 3-4 years and than just mammograms. I found my second benign phyllodes tumor on left side arm pit area and had removed in 2011. I have been going for my mammograms since the first tumor showed up. I am 61 now. In March had double mastectomy for DCIS with reconstructive surgery. Just had my 6 month follow up mammogram and right lymph node is now suspicious and have to have biopsy. They did removes 2 lymph nodes on both sides during mastectomy that were negative and the genetic testing came back negative as well .I don't know what to think now , have to wait almost 3 weeks for biopsy and am concerned again. The Dr's are positive but it's all so hard to tame the anxiety. Praying the dr's are right to be positive. Best of health to all

I pray they All right, too. You have really been through a lot. This is
such dicey business and the waiting is a world in itself.
My best to you!
