Since having a baby 2 years ago my boobs are utter agony. Just sore and tender all the time (100% not pregnant). I am taking ibuprofen most days but worse for me is how I feel prevented from doing things like running around and playing silly games with my daughter.I just find it quite exhausting being in pain all the time.
I have mentioned to GP twice but because the pain tends to disappear when I have my period (so I do get 6 days or so of respite) they are sure it is just cycle related. So I have never been offered further investigation/help.
The pain is worse in one breast. Sometimes I feel like it is also in my lungs but I can't work out if that is just my imagination - I obviously can't feel where my lungs begin if you see what I mean.
Other things that might be relevant... I used to have light periods but since baby they are absolute hell. And my boobs have gone up from a C to an E since baby too (I have not put on weight elsewhere).
Does anyone else have any experience of this? Tips? Can I insist on further help? I do have private insurance.
Might it get better in time?
And please god may this end post menopause?
Thank you for reading.
