Hello everyone, I am finished with treatment and will start all the follow up visits next week. A mugga to check my heart, and a visit with my radiation oncologist and my cancer oncologist for the tumor marker. I feel very strong and very positive that all is well. To those of you that had lumpectomys, do you get a pulling pain in that breast from time to time. I do, especially when I bend down. It is not really painful but always makes me aware that the breast is not fully healed. I have not had a new mammogram on that breast yet. Was the first one after treatment difficult or painful for anyone? Still new experiences....just when I think I know it all....Love to all of you, Nancy |

Scar tissue and nerves can be the cause of the uncomfortable feelings you have in your breast. Sometimes exercise can help loosen the band of scare tissue that is forming. Even message can help.

Hi Tara, Missing you in our morning chats. I have been getting out too early to baby-sit for my son and away from my computer. You are right about exercise helping and I will get busy with more of it. I see my Onco this month for follow up and will ask him about what exercise to follow. Thanks for your reply, Love to you, Nancy
