Paranoid or Not.

Hi Everyone,
Just feel like a bit of a vent today. For the last couple of weeks have had sore shoulders. Thought I'd just over stretched. But pain killers weren't working. So off to the Dr I went. She suggested Physio which I had twice. Trouble is laying on my front for an hour did nothing for my Mastectomy site it feels like it's bruised now.
Anyway long story short after 2 weeks it is just as bad so went back to the Dr this morning. She still feels it is Muscular but as it really hurts when I take a deep breath or cough she has decided to send me for a CT scan. Which to be honest is what I wanted.
But now I am home and appointment made for Monday I am thinking that I am being Paranoid.
Hope you are doing OK

As we make our way through this we have an heightened awareness of our bodies and my GP always says come in, don't wonder!
Sorry that the Physio put you through laying on your tummy. My mastectomy site still gives me curry and I can point directly to where the drains were; will it ever settle? Damn well hope so!
But back to you, no, no, no you are entitled to get to the bottom of why and if it is muscular so be it! At least you can be satisfied and find a way to work around it without being compromised on a table upsetting the mastectomy site.
But until the scan who knows but here's hoping all is well!
Take care and sending you a virtual hug
has had a bc diagnosis has been through the "I am sure it's nothing but..." scenario. Checking is not paranoid, it's sensible. Best wishes.
I am just fed up with feeling uncomfortable unless I am laying down. Or drugged up on Panadole.
Monday will tell the tale.

Hmmmm ... so technically - you should have had a back ache, not a shoulder pain?? Weird how things pan out!!
I hope you are not incapacitated by the fracture .... all the best for your ongoing treatment xx
