Lurker w/question about bone mets
Hello everyone, I lurk here reading all your great stories every day, but don't get to post much. Anyway, my question is concerning Bone Mets. I have had pain in my tailbone for several months now, gradually getting worse. Used to be just when I sat at the wrong angle for too long, now it's pretty much constant. My onc said it is unusual for mets to show up there, but ordered an x-ray (normal) and last week I had a bone scan, also normal. I'm now getting an MRI on Monday. Anyone else here have bone mets that didn't show up on x-ray or bone scan? I know x-ray is not the greatest, but I thought anything would have shown on the bone scan. Any thoughts?
BTW I was diagnosed Oct 04, Stage 3, Her2+++, ER-/PR-, 4/20 positive nodes. 4xA/C 4xT/Herceptin, continuing Herceptin for 1 year.
Thank you all and I love the new board layout!
