    It is comforting to know I’m not the only one with these side effects. It is so reassuring to me to hear this and that we can all relate and talk here about it!! ❤️

    I think the pain under the armpit is radiating effects which is common. Yeah… the sharp jabbing pains as well. I also think it’s nerve related and maybe the nerves “finding their way” Random for me throughout the day as well. I am 3 weeks out from my last treatment and still swollen. And my skin is still darkened but the peeling has stopped.

    I see my RO next week and will discuss massage and physio as well.

    I still limit my lifting and rest throughout the day. But, I am back to work in a couple of weeks so that has me a little worried. I will have to tell my manager and coworkers that I have will have limited mobility in my left arm!! I am NOT going to let work get in the way of recovery

    Good for you xsuzx for saying No to visitors. I also went through a time where I didn’t feel like eating much. I also experienced some nausea and I would sometimes just have cheese and crackers or a bagel.

    Let’s keep taking this journey hour by hour..day by day.. throughout the process and recovery

    Thinking of you from afar!!
    Embracing with strength
