@smokie08 I had a bone density scan once I finished chemo which showed I had osteoporosis in my neck and lower lumbar spine. It was so low that I needed immediate treatment. I thankfully haven't cracked a rib or had any fractures, so it does sound possible its to do with your bone density. I had also been on Tamoxifen for 4yrs prior to chemo, possibly all added to it. Its certainly able to be addressed, all the best with your bone density scan. M.
