I had a double mastectomy two weeks ago. I have been discharged by my surgeon, but I am now having tingling, sharp pains in my left arm where the lymph nodes were examined. Is there anything I can do that would help?

    Hi, it's been almost eight weeks since I had my double mastectomy. I had 15 lymph nodes removed. I've had different pains as well. It may be the nerves growing back. But you might want to call your surgeon just to rule out any problems.
