Since three weeks I am having a very mild pain(comes and goes, more like a shooting pain) in the right rib(Where the liver is) and below the right shoulder. I used to get this once in a while before but not for this long. All my tumor markers and Her2 serum ELISA are same as before and low normal. All the blood tests and liver test are normal(ALT and AST are below nomal). Is there anything to be concerned?

Thanks,
Julie

I had rib pain a while ago that lasted for a month. When I told my oncologist he ordered a CAT scan, which lit up. Fortunately, I had a broken rib. The women here have stated the rule many times: if it lasts two weeks, tell the doctor. I'm sure you're fine, but you can't be too careful with this *%!&*! disease.
