The Covid-19 Vaccine & Your Mammogram
As more people are starting to get their COVID-19 vaccines (yay!) we are learning more about how different people react to them and there is one benign reaction we wanted to bring to your attention. Some people who receive the COVID-19 vaccine get swelling in their lymph nodes in their underarm, which can also be a sign of breast cancer. I’m going to be clear on this: we are not saying that the COVID-19 vaccine gives you breast cancer, but your body MAY react to the vaccine in a way that looks like a breast cancer symptom but isn’t. So, why might this happen?
