Gimme a break!
Day 12 - after double mastectomy.
Had a restless night... Everything hurt....
The nerve endings are waking up quickly now.... Having phantom pains again too.. All day left breast phantom pain... ...
Hi Tracey - I described the sensation at the time as feeling like a brick on the chest and someone standing on that brick!
It does improve but since they've upset the pectoral muscle and the nerves it will take a long time. You know what they say "patience is a virtue".
Tamoxifen and pain killers are what the Dr ordered and will do the good work that is needed to get you to your end goal!
You're on your way to being a new you!
Sweet dreams! Sending you a virtual hug
