I would most certainly contact my physician because anything that is not "normal" for you should be answered to your satisfaction. They know about side effects, consequences of surgery and other interactions with medications. Especially if lymph nodes are involved. Sometimes it's scar tissue but if something as simple as a massage can eliminate the pain, check with your physician and rest your mind. I pray for healing for you. Take care! Marina

I'm on Tamoxifen. I made an appointment with my general practitioner, and I have an appointment with my oncologist next week. Thank you for the help. It really does put my mind at ease.

Are you taking Arimidex? That can cause glands to be swollen.
