Hi Sue - I also needed antibiotics after surgery, I had a large red, sore, and hot area on my breast, and bad pain in my arm but after a week of flucloxacillin it settled down nicely. Now 5 weeks post surgery things are almost back to normal apart from a lumpy feeling where the tumour was.
Hope your symptoms soon start to improve. X
