Collar Bone Bump
Hi,ladies. Seeking reassurance. Last night I found a bump on my collar bone, near the center of my chest. I was due for my yearly neck US (I have enlarged lymph nodes in my neck that just seem to hang around.) so when I called my Onc office, they offered to move up my US a couple of weeks to check out this new bump. It…

Minor rib fractures
I had a fall in the bathroom a few weeks ago and was experiencing some pain on movement so I had a chest x-ray. My doctor's nurse just called me to state that the x-ray showed minor fractures on two ribs. I have made an appointment to speak with my doctor tomorrow. In the meantime, could the fractures signal metastasis?

I've had a light cough that only rears its head when I lie down, and of course I…

Abnormal signal on right rib in MRI
Hi, I've been reading the posts here and found them helpful. My wife is 28 years post treatment. Thankful for that. She's been having some problems with her arm and shoulder. Our doctor prescribed an Xray, which found nothing, then an MRI of the shoulder and rotator cuff. That was all fine. But the report said there was…

rib pain at previous fracture site
I broke a rib about five years ago in a biking accident. The past week I have been having pain at the fracture site. It is not very painfull and only hurts when I move a certain way. It feels like the pain is from the muscles in between the ribs but I'm concerned that this may be metatasis. I've sent a message to my…
