Hi Jane: My shoulder gets sore from time to time depending on how much lymhedema I have and where it decides to settle. It goes anywhere from my arm, shoulder, chest wall (very painful with pressure)or abdomen. It is much more comfortable in the abdomen althought I look pregnant some days!!! That was the reason for stopping the Miltex burning and peeling. I even have scars from where it burned. My chest completely peeled from it. I have all new skin now. Since being on the chemo I would say I am 75% cleared of skin mets or the skin is clear with no itching or burning. That darn lymphedema is such a pain. I am careful about salt, drink lots of water and do my rebounding and still some days I just can't figure why I have it. I know I cannot ride long periods or set around. I am better by moving and being active. I hope this helps. If it doesn't get better in a week I would get it checked out. Hugs, Sandy
