mastectomy
I was told that is probably the breast tissue starting to get feeling back after the mastectomy. I still get that and it has been since 3-21-11 for the mastectomy.
Check with the Rad or the Surgeon to be sure though as my brain still may not be firing on all cylinders yet!

Yes!!!! I was getting them a
Yes!!!! I was getting them a LOT after surgery and then even more after rads. They knock the wind out of you!! I still get them every once in awhile and it's been 5 months!! Just watch that there's no extra swelling or heat because that would mean an infection. I've had 2 since rads. Congrats on being a rads grad!!

pain after rads
I had severe pain after rads--so bad that I had to go to the ER.
The doc concluded (after many tests) that it was "soft tissue damage".
The pain has gradually lessened over time. Hope yours does too!
