Hi MTS
I try not to use my right arm for anything
too strenuous. I don't have the pain I had
immediately after surgery, but I don't think
of that arm as being "normal".
With lymphedema there would be some swelling
or at least a "puffy" look to your arm or hand or
both.
It sounds like you overworked a lazy muscle. I'm
glad you're seeing your onc. - we're supposed to
always get these aches and pains checked out.
Good luck with all of this.
