Hi Pinky ~ We missed you! I have had problems on my side, shoulder and arm since my mastectomy. Several years ago before I had reconstruction something was really, really hurting around and on my incision line. What it came out to be was I had developed some scar tissue and the scar tissue banded together (Becky once had the correct terminology...fibrosic tissue maybe?). One of the bands snapped and I thought that I had something going on with my ribs. I hope that maybe this is something similar to what pain you are feeling. After the expansion and reconstruction my PS tried to get out as much scar tissue as he could. I still do have sharp pains there but not at the level it was. Colder weather seems to make it worse.
Please let us know what you find out.
Hugs ~ Ruth
