Dear Debzz1 I am sorry to read that you are feeling so worried about the symptoms you have at the moment. It may help if you are able to speak to your Breast Care Nurse which I realise will be tomorrow now as s/he will be able to support you and offer you advice.

For further support and information you are also welcome to contact our freephone confidential helpline number on 0808 800 6000 which will be open from 9am in the morning through to 5pm (Monday to Friday 9am-5pm and Saturday 9am-2pm). I do hope this information is helpful to you.

Kind regards

i have an irritable bowel and it causes a lot of pain-never in same part of stomache area.also causes a bloated tummy.Expect your head is saying its connected to the cancer-get it checked out as it could just be simple like the IBS or meds upsetting you,even appenicitis-my daughter had pain high in right side and was 3 days before they decided it was appendix.Really am saying it could be many things so try not to get too upset.Onions,too much fibre and tomatoes are always guarrenteed to give me flare of IBS.
see gp and get checked for peace of mind-or via breast nurse.

I, too have IBS and get pains and discomfort in the upper right abdomen.Part of the large intestine is in that area,it runs just under the liver and down both sides. As Sharon says- it causes a bloated tummy also knotted pains,spasms… or even just mild discomfort.
