Good Morning! I had my LUL segmentectomy, not a full lobectomy, in March of 2023. I still get the nerve pain. More like an ache. Not bad at all, just a reminder of what my body went through I guess. I do easy stretching and am fine. Bras are the thing that seem to aggravate it no matter which kind I wear. The band goes right on top of that nerve. On weekends I don’t wear one and it feels better, but I still work at a school and I don’t go without one at work. I walk 1 1/2 miles almost every night after work and I do all the things I used to before the surgery. I don’t have the pressure any more. It does slowly go away, but if you do too much at first you will set yourself backwards. Take the time to give your body grace. It’s been through a lot. Glad you are doing well! Cindy🙏🙏🥰🙏

My lobectomy was in August of 2023. I am going through what you are going through but still have the pressure and trying to find the right bra. I wear my sports bra on weekends but during the week days I still wear my regular bra (which is uncomfortable) . I also walk every day and do a stretch class twice a week. Taking no meds and feel blessed my cancer was caught in the early stage. Glad your doing well!!
