Hi cara247

I had lumpectomy and radiotherapy 2.5 years ago and still have discomfort. I told my bcn at last follow up and she advised I could have discomfort for quite a while. I was actually quite uncomfortable on Saturday with a throbbing achey pain and was a bit worried, but eased by Sunday. Hope this helps xx

I am 14 months on and have breast pain for 3 months. Very sharp and painful at times. I massage it when i can to ease it away which sometimes helps.
