Hi Susan!
I'm 5yrs on from first diagnosis, 2 lumpectomies now, have a massive scar from last year. Had Radio 4yrs ago and only Chemo last year at recurrence. Am on Arimidex. But let me say....since having Radiation, my breast has always been harder and sore and with the lumpectomies YES still sore 5yrs on. Sad reality of treatment, the other horrible side effect from radiation is chest and back cramping, its weird but am used to it now. Hate telling my teenagers to not hug me so tight or my partner, but its painful!!!!
So not abnormal or unusual in the slightest. Hugs Melinda xo
