Hi,
I am new to this site and have a quick question. I had 4 lymph nodes removed last year after being diagnosed with non-invasive breast cancer. Does anyone know or experienced constant pain after this surgery. It will be almost a year. I try to excersise it every day, but it is always stiff. Any info will be appreciated.

    Hi..I've been almost 8 months and still uncomfortable. Do you have lymphodema? Do you do the massages? Feel free to contact me @ lindaastengo@cox.net. Linda
