Hi all 

in  June 2022 I was given a diagnosis of DCIS which I had removed and followed in with radiotherapy,however in Dec 2024 it came back in the same breast,in March 25 I underwent surgery a DIEP Flap surgery which to date has went well,however of late I have noticed that my tummy is still swollen and can be a bit hard/uncomfortable at times,I still carry on with the light exercise given and my consultant advised this is normal can take 6months to heal internally,has anyone had this experience and can advise how to ease the tummy issue ??
