I think the pain your are experienceing is nerve damage from the surgery. Mine felt like I had a string of Barb Wire around my chest and it would contract and then contract. I had a radical mastectomy and it was quite some time before I found out that I had surgical clips in my chest. A lady surgeon put me on a nerve blocker Epelim, this works but I found out last year that this particular drug impares some of the chemo drugs, the ones I had not so much luck with, Cyclosphomide, Taxanes so I have changed nerve blockers to Neurontin which seems to work as well but I have the Neurontin for my latest episode against my spine.

Love & Hugs Lyn
