Yes and after 3 years I still have pain. Not as bad but still exists. I did not do any therapies. Just a week ago I had another breast surgery on the other breast. I discovered the node surgeon got the
Margins. I'm convinced the grief over the death of my 18 yr old dog brought on this cancer. My surgeon wanted to do the nodes in my left arm but insurance and me discouraged it. Too many ramifications and more long term pain

Stand up for yourself read and ask a zillion questions and then ask MORE! You are your Best doctor!

Has your doc said the pain you’ve been having is nerve pain? And if so is there anything to help it?
I read it is supposed to go away after a while but if you are still having it 3 years later, that doesn’t sound too promising.
I will definitely ask my oncologist about it when I see her this week.
