Thanks for a quick response. Wow! You recovered fast from mastectomy. It took me more than 8 weeks to recover and I didn't start rehabilitation until month 3. You are doing the things that my PT is helping me: lymphatic massage and pilate. I've had massage a few times and now start doing it at home once or twice a day. It helps. Good luck with rehabilitation and thanks again for a very informative response.

A bit more info, as you mentioned the difficulties with your non-irradiated breast. My healthy breast just didn't feel right, neither of them did. No lumps but they ached, sometimes intensely. I had just been cleared to do mammograms every two years rather than annually, but went in at 17 months & there was the DC. After the mastectomy, my entire chest relaxed; it was quite odd. No more pain in my left breast, & as I mentioned, my right side is now free of the hitches it was having. The body is an amazing thing, way beyond my intellectual understanding.
I hope your rehab goes smoothly, & that your remaining breast calms down.
