I had a mastectomy 6 years ago and I still struggle lifting my arm upright. I only had a few lymph nodes involvement. Is this normal?

Hi Miss Amanda,
I am sorry to have to tell you this but my first breast surgery was 8 years ago. I had a second bout 7 years ago. Since my diagnosis, I have had pain in my arms and struggle to lift my arm upright.
I have always put this down to the fact that I had 2 operations within a year, but maybe it would have been like this regardless?
I hope that you are doing well otherwise.
Kind regards,
