Vibrations in radiated breast post treatment 6 years

I had a lumpectomy on my left breast in 2018…followed by radiation. A couple months ago I started to experience vibrations in my left breast…as if a cell phone was vibrating…after 6 years…?? Is this a new normal for my breast tissue…always changing and repairing?? Anyone else out a few years from radiation treatment experiencing this vibration too??

    Bumping for sunny0822’s question on vibrations after radiation. Does anyone have any advice or experience to share? Thank you! 🙏

    sunny I have no direct experience but just doing a quick search of the internet makes it seem like you are not alone. Definitely send a message or get in contact with your radiology team because if there is a chance that it is radiation fibrosis. getting treatment sooner rather than later can make a difference. I am not suggesting that you definitely have fibrosis just that is a possibility and it's better to know rather than not know and that there might be a way to prevent it from getting more troubling. Sending you tons of positive thoughts
