Hi
A warm welcome to the online community, though sorry you have a need to be here.
It's possible you are imagining the pain - I think we all get lots of new and scary pains when we get a cancer diagnosis - human nature, I guess. Having said that, it's best o get it checked out anyway - maybe have a chat with your BCN.
Have you had a look at our Breast Cancer Chemo thread? It's a place for everyone going through treatment to get together to share hints, tips experiences etc.
Hope chemo treats you kindly and we are here for you whenever you need us
