Chelee,
I too have had back pain which seems to settle in one area, my scapula. It comes and goes and I too am concerned. However, I had a bone scan in May, PET and CAT's too and everything is fine. Could it just be the aches and pains of old age? Could it be a side effect of any meds you might be on? We all jump to conclusions, but there really are a lot of other things it could be. So keep a good thought. I know you are very anxious about this, but you are a warrior. Whatever it is, you will deal with it. That's how I get through the "pre scan anxiety". I tell myself I don't "know" anything till I know and worrying about it will not change it. Life's too short and precious to spend it worrying about things I cannot change.
Wish I could offer you more. Please keep us posted.
