Thanks @Josephine66 @kezmusc @Sister I went to see the BC nurse yesterday and she said there was a definite pulling from my nipple towards my armpit. She also said I had a little bit of fluid that I need to keep an eye on. She advised me to massage with bio oil to soften the scar but said if it (the pulling) doesn’t settle I might need surgery (later on) to correct it. She taped my boob (like they do for sports injuries) and my upper back (I’m getting pain there too) to help ease the pain. She thinks the fluid could be contributing to a lot of my pain but found the pulling unusual. She wants me to see the 6 weeks post surgery out to see if things settle. I’m week 3.
I see the radiation oncologist on Tuesday and the chemo oncologist in 3 weeks. I hope everything settles before I start any treatment.
i try using the bio oil but because of the pain I can’t bring myself to massage with it :(
