Any one about 2 years out from TNBC treatment and still have breast pain with a little shoulder  pain where lumpectomy was done and trouble sleeping  any of you have these problems? Pain seems worse with weather changes like 40 degree day then a 15 degree day

Thanks Renee

    hello renee, it probably muscle or nerve damage.  my mother who is a 20 year survivor of bc still daily has shooting pains along the scar line and over her chest. she has had every possible test and all come back with the same, nerve damage.

    Hi Renee - I am 12 years out and still have shooting pains under my arm whre I had nodes removed.  Doctor says it's nerve damage.  Most of the time comes on when it's cold.  I would mention to doc at next follow up just to be sure.  Good luck and keep surviving!EmbarassedCool

    Hi wow 12 years out that is wonderful.

    Were you Tripple Negative or another type?

    Thanks the cold seems to make a difference for me to I had no node involvement
