Smelling cancer!

It's six months now since my breasts were removed, Invasive Ductal Carcinoma, hormone receptive. The surgeon says he "thinks" he got it all. But with each passing day for the last couple months now, the sickening smell that I detected prior to my cancer diagnosis is back again, stronger than before surgery!! And nobody around me smells it except me, and I'm thinking they don't believe me!! The surgeon acts like I have three eyes when I ask if the smell means the cancer is still there!!! How can THEY who work around cancer all the time NOT detect this thick-oily-sweet-almost puss like- foul odor?!?

Have you had an MRI breast or whole body scan? The MRI breast is what picked up my second tumor.
