What would you do?
I was diagnosed back in January 2007 with stage 3c IDC, multiple tumors largest being 7cm and 9/27 nodes +. Anyhow after all my chemo and radiation and surgeries I went NED.  Well I have been having pain in my right back near my shoulder for about two months now, after trying everying to get rid of the pain I went to my Onc. He did X-rays and found a "spot" on my 6th right rib, had another set of x-rays and finding the same spot... My onc ordered a bone scan which I had yesterday and today I got the results that said it was normal. WHat should I do? What should I ask of my Onc? I know I still have this pain that has NEVER stopped hurting, the pain has never moved up or down or changed? What would you do???? ANy and all thoughts would be most appreciated!!!!
