Hi, I am asking for advice or confirmation really.
its 3 weeks today since my mastectomy. Left side . I am lucky enough to have been able to work from home after the first week of my op.
when I stand after working etc the site of the op is tight, it feels like I have a heavy weight pulling my chest on that side. Under my arm below the incision when I do the shrug or shoulder roll it feels like a clicking sensation then a hot sharp pain if I hold it it doesn’t hurt as much.
The tendon under my arm is incredibly tight, and I keep having tensing sensation around my chest .
I read how other people are getting on with their daily lives going for long walks etc but i feel very stiff the area is tight and quite sore, under my arm I have a tennis ball size softish lump . There doesn’t appear to be any infection.
has anyone else had all this, or do I need to seek advice, I am getting my results Friday so was going to wait till then. I’m also so cold all the time too .
Hi there, you might want to to give you cancer nurse a call, just to put your mind at ease, or even give the lovely folks here at Macmillan a ring on 0800 808 0000. It’s so difficult to know what is normal healing and what is something that should be checked so always better to be sure I think. Best wishes
Hi Irish girl 16 , I was going tomorrow for results but they have delayed me getting them , so I’m going for a wound check and see them tomorrow x thx 
Results have been delayed for a week, that has made me very concerned, I’m still going to get the wound checked . Does this unsure and insecure feeling ever get better
