Radiation Fibrosis Syndrome
Hi everyone!!!! I was diagnosed with BC last year. I had DCIS and IDC......I had conserving surgery partial mastectomy with a flap reconstruction done......I had my yearly follow up in June this year ...
@Angel61, I, too, was told only a very small number of patients get fibrosis. I do "manage" it. Check with your surgeon and oncologist, but my feeling is that they wouldn't be able to remove all the fibrosed tissue. A large part of my pec muscle is fibrosed, so I don't think they'd remove that. Luckily, it's the least painful, really, just limitting in the way I can move my arm 🙄
