Prostate removed in 2015, in 2023 PSA started rising. Informed I had an advanced and aggressive biochemical prostate cancer. Had a 6 month Lupron injection and had 39 radiation treatments. After radiation was complete I started to notice my breasts increas8ng 8n size and were very painful. After mammogram and ultrasound I was informed I have gynecomastia in both breast with t(e left breast the largest. It was so painful that I started wearing compression shirts when I played pickleball or any sports.
Having the lumps and fluid removed May 1st. Has anyone else developed? Thanking God that the lumps were not cancerous!

Yep — no tight t-shirts for me. I'm not experiencing more than very rare, minor soreness, though.

I did this so you can read previous posts and connect with others like @philnob @hergiew @jimcinak @aldenrobert @hbp @cesar52 @velohomme and many others.

Scotty, can you share more about having lumps and fluid removed?
