What do bone Mets feel like?
Hi Gals
I was diagnosed almost a year ago with stage 3C DCIS - (Beryl for those in the know!) Beryl was pretty busy and managed to have 13 not so darling babies (lymph nodes). So a mastectomy was on the table and as I was awaiting test results for BRAC gene I decided to go for gold and do two for the price of one - I do love a bargain!
Results of the test came through the day after my surgery and I was indeed positive for BRAC2 gene.
So Beryl and her kids had been rendered homeless and I had the usual chemo, rads and AI’s to ensure they did not come back. All was good until about 3 weeks ago when I started to feel persistent pain in my rib (same side that Beryl and the kids popped up on). I have a CT scan on Friday but just wondered if anyone could describe the pain. I have pain that comes and goes (mostly there) and goes from a sharp pain to a dull ache. I am hoping the Beryl has not decided to return!
Any advice?

- @Not_good_63_57 You’re definitely still in shock, and will be for a while yet, understandably. As @arpie said, let it all out. Tell all your fears and concerns to your psychologist. It’s very helpful. It takes time, but you will sort your emotions out and find your strength again.And there’s always something that can be done 👊🏻🍀♥️
- Thankyou
I’m stressing that there goin to say can’t help my head is all over the place think I’m still in shock - @Not_good_63_57. All the best with your psych visit today ... let it all out - it will be cathartic.
Your medical team will be putting a plan in place for the best possible outcome .... and the waiting just SUCKS! :(
