I am currently experiencing bad nerve pain following mastectomy and total lymph node clearance on 8th May. This manifests itself as tight vice like gripping sensation with burning, pins & needles and almost like someone is pulling a cheese grater across my chest in the scar area and under my arm. I have started 8 sessions of FEC chemo on 19th June and had 2nd session on 10th July – this seems to exacerbate the pain and leaves me feeling low and exhausted. I feel I have enough to contend with the chemo without this pain as well. I would be grateful for any help or tips you can give me to alleviate this pain as would prefer not to go down the route of even more drugs such as amytriptilline which has been suggested by oncology team. Do you have any thoughts re the Re-Builder system advertised on the net – although expensive I would consider buying it if it works? Also my oncology team say I cannot take vitamins or supplements for the duration of my chemo. I would be grateful for any information and look forward to hearing from you.
