Is it normal to have nerve type pain following a mastectomy a year ago .
Hi Luppie welcome to the forum. This pain may be the healing process which can take a long time to fully heal inside for us all so it is entirely possible that this is from the Mastectomy. If however, you are worried about that, then please do get in touch with the GP surgery and see if someone can see you and put your mind at rest..
Hi a lot of pain can be from nerve damage etc.
To reassure you see your GP or cancer team.
I was a breast clinic today and to have a CT scan for ribs and shoulder pain.
Your pain may not be same as mine but I would get it checked out if your concerned
