Has anyone ever experienced rib pain with Stage 2 breast cancer? My mom was just recently diagnosed apparently it’s a low grade and slow growing and HER negative but she’s been experiencing some red paint the past couple of days.
I don’t remember any rib pain when I was diagnosed with grade 1 cancer no lymph node involvement in 2003. Pain is not usually a symptom of breast cancer in the early stages. I was very worried about it spreading when I was diagnosed. Every pain is a worry. So your mum should let her doctors know what she is experiencing. I think it will put her mind at rest but she needs to ask. Good luck and well done for being so supportive to your mum.

I have just finished treatment for stage 2 breast cancer. I seemed to have aches and pains everywhere when i was first diagnosed. I had to have a CT scan as mine was HER2 positive. That came back clear and, as if by magic, so did the pain. They put it down to anxiety and being hypersensitive to any ache or pain xx
