hi Kiama12,
I was diagnosed back in 2012 went thru surgery chemo and radiation, I was worried about recurrence and it was playing on my mind. My GP referred me to a psychologist who has worked with me to help me see the positives around me again. we are eligible for an enhanced primary care form which allows us to see psychologist under medicare etc.
I can say my pains have been residual side effects from my chemo and radiation treatments, and now that my oncologist has explained that I am more settled than I was prior to knowing this.
Its ok to feel scared, to worry about this but like PrimeK said if it becomes a preoccupation ask for a referral.
you are strong and you have been through the horrible time of breast cancer diagnosis and treatment. don't discount it just become you haven't had to have chemo or rads.
take care
Alice
