Hi! I'm sure this has been discussed, just can't seem to find it. I was originally dx in 2010, BMX with implants, & chemo. In 2014 dx with recurrence, this time chemo & radiation. Since radiation, I have been getting sharp pains in the radiated breast and back pain on the opposite side. Coincidentally, the sharp pain usually happens when there is a major shift in weather, i.e. rain or humidity changes. MO thinks its just scar tissue reacting to the weather. But I need to hear other women confirm that. Also, my PS said I have a lot of scar tissue from rads. So much that he doesn't think I can work it out with manual manipulation, he wants to go in and surgically remove all the scar tissue. When I mentioned this to my chiropractor he said he believes the back pain is because of all the scar tissue pulling and throwing things out of alignment. What do you all think?

Thanks!
