Rib Pain, but no mets on scans...
I've had rib pain for probably 2 years, since I had my implants and bilateral mastectomy. I have been run through a PET scan, and nothing... Most of the tenderness is at the ribs in the front, but sometimes it wraps all the way around and under both cages.
I have liver mets, and mets to spine and left clavical dx about 1 month ago. At times the ribs are so tender to the touch that I can feel them when I turn over in bed (against the mattress). I don't feel any lumps or bumps though. And nothing on scan. Onc says even if it was mets, that this treatment of Taxol/Carboplatin/Herceptin will likely make me feel better. But I would almost say the treatment makes me hurt there more... The treatment has made my back hurt more at times too.
Anyone ever experienced this?
