Hi all been a long time since I’ve been on here xx hope your all well I was diagnosed 5 years ago with grade 3 her2 +++ invasive ducts carcinoma with lymph node involvement had chemo and herceptin for the last 5 months I have been having quite bad pain in my right rib cage and also in my back and shoulder on the same side I did have a chest infection over 8 months ago which required steroids to shift but I have been backwards and forwards to a and e with this bone pain constantly on painkillers as some some days it hurts to walk and breath I have contacted my oncologist who I see next week but just wondered if anyone else had had anything similar I’m also extremely tired a lot and regularly have to sleep when I get home from work any ideas would be appreciated
I’m glad that you have contacted your oncologist, there is only one way to reach a definitive answer and that is with scans. Hopefully it will put your mind at rest, best of luck and try to enjoy Christmas xx
Stillhere I def needed too the pain has been quite bad on a couple of occasions this month the the point I wasn’t able to sit down and constantly on painkillers for my rib and hip it could be nothing but considering my history and grading it needs checking out my oncologist has made me an emergency appointment for Xmas eve at 4pm
Mari and bone scan are on order !! Hopefully should have the answers within 4 weeks thanks I’ve still enjoyed Xmas xxx
