By any chance, has anyone talked to you about possible lymphedema of the breast? I just went to the physical therapist today and learned how to try to work through that. Also, after my lumpectomy (first surgery), I had multiple hematomas in a honeycomb fashion which caused pain. If you have a breast care specialist, maybe check with that person or your surgeon. Oncologists don't always deal with this type of issue.

Thank you, Trixie. Nothing but "you'll just have to learn to live with it" was given by the surgical oncologist. Hard to believe but true.
