Rib pain
Has anyone had rib pain following radiation? I have been doing some reading and apparently there can be inflammation of rib cage and your ribs can be more prone to breaking. Routine appointment with oncologist I raised it as I was worried it might be cancer on bone of rib cage-he said not likely so soon after finishing chemo and radiation (finished 10 May). Chest Xray came back normal but it is still sore especially whn I apply any pressure. Have started wearing crop tops again as bras just too uncomfortable---seeing my GP next week-should I request a bone scan.....????
