I had lumpectomy and have the same thing. It started around the same time as you (maybe 3 months out and I am now almost 18 months out from surgery). My first onco told me it was the healing process but I just saw my surgeon for a follow up appt and she told me this is common in 10% of surgerical cases - it is due to the nerves only partially regenerating themselves (as I still have the phantom pain and then do a thourough breast check (since I still have one)). Now I know better and only self check once a month (surgeon said too much pushing and rubbing will cause irritation etc and she is right but when you feel a funny feeling - you are compelled to keep checking it out).


Yours is probably the same thing.
