lumps under arms

hello, was just wondering if someone could answer a question for me. in 2007, i was diagnosed with stage 2, e/p and her2 positive breast cancer, and in 2011, diagnosed with stage 1 ae thyroid cancer.   doing really good so far, last pet scan in january of this year was clear!   my question is, about two years ago, i found a lump on the under side of my upper arm. my chemo dr called it something but i can't remember what, but he said it was fairly common and it is something to do with the lymph system. i think he called it lympitis or lymphoids, something like that. but, like i said, the pet scan was clear, (i have had two scans since i found it and they were both clear of disease). now i have found another one on my other arm in the same position. does anyone know what this is? i have tried looking on the net, but since i can't remember what it's called, i can't find anything. any answers well be really welcomed.   

thank you,

kathy

Maybe Lymphedema?

I would suggest going to a naturalpath

A doctor who also uses herbs to reduce lymph inflammation.

Also, if it is cancerous, Dr. Bruzynski in Texas can help you.

i just read your concern.if i am understanding the info correct,it sounds like your lymph nodes.ck out your lymph system and how n why it works n what it does on your pc. then ck out dry skin brushing and also a mini trampoline to help move the lymph fluid.they say we have more lymph fluid than blood and when the fluid becomes slow or stagnated to a degree is when lumps etc show up...the lymph sys has no pump like the heart for moving blood thru us,certain activities cause the lymph to move n remove toxins in us. i,m not a dr of any kind,just trying to be informed n hopefully to pass on info to others,it,s just info,so others can also make their own opinions,as i have. take care.
