This morning is probably my worst pain morning so far. Woke with pain around the ribs that isn't fully relieved by pills. My left breast has random shooting pains almost like when you are pregnant that first time and it feels like it's stinging when your milk ducts are connecting and such?

Any ideaas what this is - or if it's a concern? Also can I do warm or cold compresses on these boobies or not? Would htat help? Pain pillsj ust aren't touching it this morning I gotta do SOMETHING!

The shooting pains in the breast are nerves waking up. It's normal. I used ice packs after all of my procedures but it's always best to ask your surgeon.

My Dr also told me that it was the nerves waking up.  It's amazing to me how much this feels like having my boobs full of milk.  I feel like I want to go in a hot shower just to relieve the pressure but I know that won't work....LOL!
