Hi all, I have not had any relief from the Lido pain patch nor the Neurotin. I have continued on my Motrin otherwise I would not be able to endure. I have been doing the breast messages and stretches as my new doctor advised last week. Unfortunately, my breast pain and muscle tightness/hardness has actually increased and seems my implant (tissue expander and/or capsular contracture) has invaded or moved further into my armpit. In addition, my range of motion in my arm has decreased. And if that tissue expander expands any further up my chest, it'll be on my shoulder. I am uncorfortable all of the time, and the pain now wakes me from sleep. Unfortunately, I have not been able to start physical therapy but I'm on the top of their list for the first opening---most likely within 2 weeks. I've had my tissue expanders in since February and I know that radiations have impacted everything in that area. Anyone ever experience anything similar? Any suggestions for pain for Fake boobs of steel---Many thanks to my BC Sisters for your support. XXXXX
