I,m so glad you brought up rib pain. I do have bones mets, but reasonly I feel tender spots on a rib now and then. I keep feeling it trying to decide if it's from my reconstruction where they brought the muscle around.My radiation Dr. did a bone scan a couple of weeks ago and it showed something new on my rib. They didn't say it was new mets and they weren't real concerned about it. But I had not told anyone about the sore spot before then. She said they would do another scan in 6 months. When my oncologist saw the scan plus (my chest scan for lungs)he said no that was too long So after starting me on xeloda he is doing another bone scan in 6 weeks. But I feel better knowing that others have the soreness and it's not always new mets. I just assumed it was. Now I have some hope it might just normal. For us that is. Patty H
