Thanks..........my breast stays swollen........wakes me up around 4 am aching......I put ice pack on and take a pain pill. I just wondered if anyone else had experienced the same.

You're in the early stages of recovery. Give yourself some time. I had 36 rounds of radiation after 6 rounds of chemo. Took about 6-8 months to feel normal (as much as I could).
