pain with implant and expander

Hello Friends,

My new problem.......
Had my first chemo treatment on Wednesday. I was ok till Thursday evening when I started to feel nausea. By Friday I wasn't able to lift my head I was so ill. II wasn't able to eat anything till Saturday night, an apple. My husband called my doctor and got some new meds,Lord I hope they work next time. Ok, on to my problem, I had a double mastectomy. They place an implant on my left side and an expander on my right. This was done on 1/26 and I'm still in pain. I can't lift my arms, can't dress with out help or comb my hair. The pain is across my chest and down my arms. My right arm is the worst. I am on pain meds that help some. I have a appointment with my PS this Thursday, I want the implant and expander out. I was so hoping to get back to work and just feel normal. I feel like I can't while in so much pain. My husband said what would even make me feel better was fine with him. I was wondering if any of you had the same pain and what you did. It seems from what I read most of you have had reconstructive surgery. If you had this pain how long did it last and could you move your arms? Thanks for listening
