Did you ever have this?

[Cathy1]

Hi! Did anyone ever have terrible underarm pain and pain along the scar after mastectomy? My left breast mastectomy was nine years ago and this is the only time I'm having problems, especially at night. I don't know if I didn't raise my arm enough and it's all fluid or what could be causing the pain. The onc thinks it's scar tissue and the surgical clips showed up as a 1cm area on the MRI that hasn't changed in years. Could chest wall or underarm lymphedema cause all this pain or scar tissue after so many years? And do any of you know of a good lymphedema site where I could find answers. Thanks and God Bless You All, Cathy
