Re: What now - lower back, hip & shoulder pain
Hi Vicky,
I haven't been on the board in weeks bec/ I've been buried at work, but just logged and and am trying to catch up. So glad to hear that the scan went well. I have been incredibly achey (sp?), and actually thought it was the result of Femara. My hips, knees, and back. I've never had problems like that before, but I believe Femara can cause that, so if you are on an AI, that might be the cause as well. I am so glad that the scans went well. Happy Mother's Day to you and to all the her2 moms on this site!!
