Has anyone experienced excruciating breast nerve pain post explant?

[Guest guest]

I'm 2 months post explant and the problem has been going on since 3

wks after explant. Searing, burning, " nerve " like pain with most any

kind of normal daily activity(ie. mild stretching, bending down,

pushing in a drawer). Even the water from the shower during these

times of pain is unbearable. If I just sit and do nothing, the

breasts feel fine. I am unable to wear a sports bra because of the

pain from the compression is bad. A shelf bra inside a loose tank

top is OK.

I consulted with Dr. Kolb and told her my surgeon was DR Melmed and

she said she's tired of cleaning up his messes( remaining scar

capsule).Dr M. said he couldn't get it all out. She said she

wouldn't take any of his patient!!!She thinks it may be caosule

and /or scarring of 4th intercostal nerve.

I've been unable to find any plastic surgeon that knows anything

here in Seattle.Is Dr Kolb the only Dr that knows how to deal with

this problem????I need a recommendation for another Dr. to consult

with.

I can't be the only one who has suffered with this. If you're out

there, ladies please let me know who you went to and what they had

to do.

I can't work what with this breast/chest wall pain and all the other

symptoms I have throughout my body. I am disabled at this point.

I sure could use some advice.

Thanks for all the support.
