Unhappy Oh come on now....

Well I'm almost 5 years out now and was looking to get off the 6 month plan to a yearly follow up but last summer I got a benign fluid filled cyst in my reconstructed breast that had to be surgically aspirated. It was very painful. Now, I've got shingles. Guess where? Yep, right along that reconstructed breast. It's painful and has aggravated my already screwed up nerves in that area. More pain. I'm going to tell my oncologist that if I can I'd like to stay on a six month follow up plan since that area still seems to be "active" with problems. Wondering if they do nerve blocks for that area. All this stuff has really gotten painful.
