Pain after mastectomy
I had my left breast removed on Dec. 28. I have an expander put in and lymph nodes removed. Is it normal to have pain under arm and in chest. It is unbearable at times.

After radiotherapy
I am due to start the first of 15 sessions of radiotherapy tomorrow and I wondered whether you have a scan a while after, like a bone scan or Some other type. I've had chemo last year, a mastectomy and having herceptin injections til October. Before any treatment started I had an MRI scan but only to

Hi, new to site
I was diagnosed August 2013, lumpectomy, mastectomy, chemo and then rads. Had reconstruction last June and second stage of recon last week. Suddenly it seems to have hit me that this may not be it - generally really positive so wondered if anyone else feels this way?

A bit scared of changing from Bisoprolol to Dronedarone.
After six months of PAF (which started after mastectomy surgery) I have fortnightly PAF lasting 12 - 14 hours and going back to NSR on it's own. I'm on 3.75 Bisoprolol and it keeps the rate down but doesn't stop attacks. All my attacks have started after food or at night when asleep. Now I'm being prescribed

Any advice pre mastectomy?
Hi I'm 38 and diagnosed with breast cancer in Sept 2015. Began chemo in November as I was pregnant when diagnosed so had to wait for baby to be born+ recover a little. Not the ideal way to start motherhood but she got me through some tough days. I'm just finished chemo+ getting node removal 26/02
