After radiation, I complained to the drs. that I felt that way...my breast felt full and hard. It is now a year later and the feeling has gone away. I do sort of "protect" it...a month or two after treatment, my pocketbook hit it and I about died from the pain. I naturally went to the dr. everything was ok. I have noticed that the breast has gotten a little smaller...not that I had a whole from the get go. Beepie...you won't have a Hole girl! Good luck!

Hi -- I have had 3 lumpectomies in one breast in the past couple of months and do not have a hole. One breast is a little smaller but not that noticable.

Good luck!
