just found out...

I just found out I need a total shoulder replacement in my right shoulder. My bc was on right side and I received chemo, radiation and herceptin. Any chance radiation could have contributed to my right shoulder problems? I am told the shoulder joint is bone on bone and I have been in pain for over a year now. Never had a problem before this with it. I am 4 years from my diagnosis and over 3 years since radiation.
