13 months after radiotherapy

I'm 13 months down the line after DCIS & radiotherapy. Got the past 2 weeks my breast has gotten more painful. It's a new pain if that makes sense. There's a throbbing sharp sorta pain going on at the nipple, radiating up to the top of the breast & then the usual constant dull throb at the side / underarm of breast. Anyone else experiencing something similar? Don't want to call bcn as they've made me feel kinda like a hypochondriac in the past. Please help!

  • Hi there ...

    Don't worry what you think they think ... after cancer treatment we all get a little over cautious of pain and niggles ... we get that so if there's anything going on, we catch it early ... trust me, I don't know anyone who doesn't feel like that ...

    It's far better getting seen and sorted ... yea touch wood all's fine ... but what people don't know is post treatments it feels like cancer just sits on our shoulder ... never quite letting us go ... so you look after you .. it's your health ... good luck ... be gently firm ... Chrissie x

  • Thank you I think people tend to not realise that after effects of bc! As I said 13 months on & my boob is as sore as ever.
