Not Worth It
Spent: $1,000 in Palo Alto, CA

After lumpectomy in my breast a seroma developed. It has been drained 4 times in the last 2 years. Now I am experiencing pain in my arm.

My doctor is telling me only to watch it. For how long? and what can be done? Can it get cancerous? Thanks for your answer in advance.

My Doctor:

after a little lumpectomy I have a deformed breast.
