Hi, I am so sorry you are having such troubles! One thing I can comment on are the muscle spasms. I am taking Neurontin 600mg 4 times a day. Neurontin is nerve pain medication. I have not felt needle pains or "electric wiggles" since. I also take Flexirel "a mild muscle spasm help" I use it as needed. also very helpful for me.  I started the med's while in the hospital for pain management after bi-lateral Mastectomy with some node removal. I am 45 yrs old. I had Inflammatory Breast Cancer. I have Radiation next. My biggest challenge now is Lymphodema, It surprised me, I didn't expect it till a few years from now! watch for that okay?. I opted to skip reconstruction. My body rejected the Port, pic line and J.P tubes. foreign objects. Unless you are really into showing your cleavage or your significant other really wants them, You could opt out or wait a while for implants. The body can only take so much at one time. Praying you well! J.M.E:)
