Hi All I went to my oncologist today for some sharp pains I've been having in the breast where I had the surgery.   Its a sharp pulling pain when ever I laugh hard or stressed or doing too much.  My doctor said it can be scar tissue, but we're have a MRI Mammo and pet/ct scans to be sure.   Has anyone ever felt this before and the problem was scar tissue.  If so, how did you treat it?  How long was it after the surgery.   Thanks.

Marolyn,
 
I have scar tissue in the breast from the lumpectomy I had Oct 07. It s still painful everyday but no one had given me any advice except it takes time to feel better. Wish I had better advice but just wanted you to know you are not alone.
