Consider COVID vax history when assessing adenopathy on mammograms (44% of COVID-vaccinated women have an average 1.5 cm underarm lymph gland issues & the few who got them biopsied had 21% “malignant” results)

Axillary lymphadenopathy, a common adverse effect of COVID-19 vaccination, is seen in 44 percent of patients undergoing breast imaging after vaccination, according to a study published in the May issue of Radiology.

Stacey Wolfson, M.D., from the New York University Grossman School of Medicine in New York City, and colleagues examined the outcomes of axillary lymphadenopathy among patients who received the COVID-19 vaccine and underwent breast imaging between Dec. 30, 2020, and April 12, 2021.

The researchers found that 44 percent of the 1,217 patients who received the COVID-19 vaccine and underwent breast imaging had lymphadenopathy during at least one imaging examination. The average node measured 1.8 cm among patients with lymphadenopathy. Lymphadenopathy was more likely to be seen within 14 days after vaccination, while at 50 days following the second dose, it was rare. Forty-three patients (8 percent) underwent biopsy: 79 and 21 percent had benign and malignant results (34 and nine patients, respectively). There were 407 follow-up examinations in 387 patients (72 percent) with lymphadenopathy. At follow-up examination averaging 15.7 weeks after initial examination, 79.4 percent of studies demonstrated reduced lymph node size and were considered benign. Stable findings were reported in 20.6 percent; these were assessed as probably benign with recommendation for further follow-up. No patients in the follow-up group were diagnosed with a subsequent malignancy. Up to 43 weeks after vaccination, persistent axillary lymphadenopathy was observed.

"There should be no delay in screening mammograms due to recent vaccination and there is variable time to resolution of reactive lymphadenopathy," the authors write.

The paper did not appear to provide the “norm” for the population, so maybe these women had cancer from other causes, or the vaccines induced a worse response. Only 8% were biopsied.

However, having any issue after a vaccine would be a concern to me, and 44% of women had just this one problem, without including other possible things other women also got.

The “Take Charge Of Your Health” Ping List

This potentially high volume ping list is for health articles and studies which describe something you or your doctor, when informed, may be able to immediately implement for your benefit.

Now keeping a new list (“Common/Top Issues”) for conditions expected to only concern at least 1% of the population. Ask to be on either the “Common/Top Issues” or “Everything” list.

Please email or private message me if you want on or off of a list and of which list you desire.

My Friend’s 18 yo dtr named Signe had 2 covid vax. She found a lump under her arm. Mamogram, Doctor wait and watch. Recently she had her 3rd shot.

“my period is late”. She is a virgin and said that her period gets mixed up after a covid vax. Her friends say the same thing.

Last week Signe had a re-check mamogram. There is a new lump under the other arm.

I cried when I heard this.

I typoed the title. The average size was 1.8 cm, not 1.5.

Yet another HORRID adverse effect of these dangerous $hots.

Sickening....in so many ways 😩

I think I heard similar conclusions in the past, that women should “not delay” screening because of vaxes.

Based on this, I’d delay at least 6 weeks after vax. Is it really worth the worry, and waste of time and money on follow-ups, because many find a false-positive enlarged lymph?

I pray she is fine. Please note that the findings are that few were actually malignant and most all went away after some months. OP made some good comments regarding that the few there were could have had underlying cancer to start with.

[ConservativeMind]

Most womens’ glands had gone back to normal by that point, in the study.

Iodine might help

The cancers and VAIDS from the vaccine are just starting to show up in statistical analysis. I predict that in a couple of years, the volume of data that supports correlation and perhaps causation will be too much to ignore.

Then we will see a legal fight over vaccine immunity. Since I and most of my family remain un-vaccinated, it is not of immediate concern to us.

The study, published in the peer-reviewed journal Nature Communications on Friday, Friday, analyzed data from 2.3 million adults.

The researchers found that groups at a higher risk of severe illness and death from COVID-19 were the elderly, males, people from Asian and Black ethnic backgrounds and people who live in poor areas. Imperial College noted that these metrics were consistent with the results of previous studies.
