Chest and shoulder soreness 4 months after radiation

in Ovarian Cancer #1
I had radiation to my clavicle and chest area in September for ovarian cancer spread to lymph nodes in that area. I now have pretty consistant soreness to the chest, shoulder and axilla on the radiated side. This all started about a week ago. Just wondered if anyone else has experienced this after radiation.

    You might try checking in on
    You might try checking in on another discussion board as not many of us have had radiation. I heard that the effects of radiation persist long after the treatment with regard to killing cancer.
