Hi there.
Not sure why I wrote “should I be worried?” because I am already! I just don’t know what I am supposed to do so wondered if any of you could give me some reassureance.
I was diagnosed a year ago with primary and secondaries at the same time. I have a small area on my breastbone and no evidence of spread anywhere else. Before diagnosis I had a lot of chest pain which is why I originally went to the gp. I didn’t have a breast lump. Imagine my horror to find out the chest pain was actually breast cancer secondaries. Anyway, chemo, herceptin and denosumab have all been successful so far and since my chemo finished I have been pretty much pain free. Until now. I have started to get pain again in my chest and in my spine (it wasn’t there before). I keep wondering if it means the cancer is spreading or is it just normal to get lots of pain but it not to mean things are getting worse? I don’t know what to do. Should I try to make an appointment to see the consultant? I feel like I don’t actually want to know any more bad news.
I’d love to hear from any of you. Thanks xx
