I have permission to post about a colleague who had a right upper quadrant breast resection followed with radiation completed one year ago, for DCIS.  She is now pregnant for the first time, 4 months.  She is experiencing a lot of uneven swelling and significant pain in the right breast.  Left breast is getting larger, nipple changing, but no pain.
   
  Has anyone had other clients with breast complaints post-radiation?  What is the likelihood of her being able to breastfeed on the affected breast?
   
  Thank you,
  Darlene Coyne, IBCLC, APRN, BC
