Re: Breast pain and strange lumps?
Thank you for more feedback - and yah, it sucks being sore. I have felt better the last two weeks now that the Herceptin side effects seem to be wearing off a bit - and have less headaches. Also I started swimming a week ago in the sea --- so swimming 20-30 minutes a day and it feels great! I cheat a bit and use my fins and snorkel so I can keep up with my man but it feels great to do freestyle and really stretch that right side out --- I can really feel is stretch but I'm not really that sore - so I think it is working!
Exciting stuff! I was hoping to try to start running again, but still hurts so might try a double "jogging" bra and strap the girls in and see if that works??? :-) I know that the movement will help - if only my mind! :-)
Thanks again! Karen
