I'm not sure how to say this, but I'm sorry in advance if its long and I ramble on. I finished treatment two years ago for B.C. after a mastectomy and chemo. Last May I started getting back and right hip pain I was given a CT scan which showed minor degenerative changes.Since then the pain has been minor until a week ago now the pain in my right hip seems to have got worse . It comes and goes, sometimes it hurts when I'm resting and sometimes when I'm walking. Before I had B.C I would have just dismissed it as arthritis, now I have convinced myself its bone cancer. I know I am worrying probably unnecessary, but now I'm starting to get depressed, which is made worse by the fact I have no one to talk too. My husband is useless when it comes to feelings and emotions and is not any help, but that's another story. I really don't think I need to see a doctor (getting an appt is nearly impossible anyway, usually end up having to see a nurse practictioner). In March of this year I had a Ultra sound on my right groin because of a swelling, this also came back clear.How do we stop this anxiety every time we get an ache or pain. Thank you all for listening. I will follow the rule and give it another week or two and see if things improve .
