Re: Could I have bone mets?

During and after treatment I had terrible bone and joint pain, it got worse when I was on the herceptin only and then I started Femara and holy cow just when I thought it couldn't get worse it did. I started to take glucosamine and calcium and within 2 weeks I was almost pain free. Always check with your doctor first to make sure it is safe to take anything. I, like Coolbreeze hear this complaint a lot. If u need piece of mind get the scan, good luck and keep us posted.
