Is it just me, or do others suffer with no help too?

Hi! @clh71 :

I am so sorry for your suffering through last year and wish to reduce your pain somehow...

Have you tried physical therapy/occupational therapy to resolve these painful issues yet? They helped me tremendously to reduce my own pains. My wonderful PCP recommended me to the "Cancer Patients' rehab program" that has been run by a local hospital and helped me back to a "normal life", not pain-free completely but managable.

Wishing you all a healthier, happier, peaceful and very blessed new year of 2025!

Unfortunately, I think my surgeon missed a few steps. He did not drain my breast after surgery.
And, although it did drain a lot on its own, I feel strongly that if he had put a drain in, I might have done better. And neither the cancer dr. nor the surgeon referred me out for help with Lymphedema, My PCP found me someone to help. But that was 6 months later. Mammogram and Ultrasound show no cancer, but abnormal structure from treatments. Whatever that means.
