Congratulations: on your successful treament of breast cancer. Are you continuing your follow-ups with your doctors/surgeon? Are you continuing to do monthly self breast exams? You have been cancer free 10 years, lets keep it that way!! If you have not been seen by your doctor/surgeon since the pain began - GO TO THEM TO BE CHECKED!! Please!! If it is pain due to scar tissue, Aleve (naproxen) or Motrin should be adequate.
