Hi Jenny,
I was so interested to read your post.
I haven't even been for my mapping session yet, an infection has me in a holding pattern. All going well, I should be there this coming week. My BC is also on my left side and I remember the oncologist saying something about measures they take to try and prevent damage to the heart.
Perhaps this is what he was talking about. I'm going to mention your story to him and see what comes out of it. Sounds like some sort of breathing exercises, maybe thai chi or yoga or something might help.
I hope you find what's right for you and if you are interested I'll post an update for you after my mapping.
I'll be thinking of you on the day!
Hugs
