Armpit pain after a week!
Left mastectomy with sentinel node biopsy last week. Was feeling great now home and the pain in my armpit today is cruel.

Keep on top of your exercises - 3-4 times a day. Don't overdo it 'cos that can also give you grief. Take your painkillers as instructed. Do keep an eye out for infection but otherwise just look after yourself. When do you see your surgeon again - ask about cording and get on to it if you have it. I still have numbness and discomfort nearly 3 months after surgery - nerves are numb and signals scrambled which may or may not sort itself out over time.
