Welcome to our forum. I am glad to hear that you are in remission from breast cancer. It is difficult to answer your question, as a lot will depend upon your age, the procedure you had and your general health. Do you have any heavy lifting to do at work? I had a double mastectomy 9 years ago and was advised not to lift anything heavy after that, as it could start off lymphoedema in my arms.
I was careful to adhere to this advice, but got bilateral lymphoedema despite this. Are you still in touch with your breast care nurse? It might be useful to speak to her about this, as she will know all about your type and grade of cancer, your treatment and your general health.
Do please let us know what you decide to do. We are always here for you.
