Margin is it both shoulder or one. If one did you have radiation therapy on that side?

I did not have radiotherapy on that side. My X-ray results are out. The diagnosis is calcific tendinitis. I take 1000mg calcium per day to fight osteoporosis but I do not think that caused this issue

That sounds painful. Are they going to give you a cortisone shot or Physical therapy.

physio did not help. I will have a cortisone injection in June. I do not know if I can do anything to prevent this calcification happening again. Anyone had a such issue. I do not know what caused it.

@margun , I had calcific tendonitis in my shoulder long before I had bc. It seems to be caused by wear and tear as well as aging. As a former competitive swimmer mine was probably due to overuse (all that freestyle.) Cortisone injections (two six months apart) worked for me.

I need to reach out to my oncologist about an issue I am having. I have a rare but sever neuropsychological reaction to aromatase inhibitors. Much of it is under control with effexor. This reaction is not manageable with over the counter meds. It is sever, so please don't suggest them. I am trying to explain how I feel when I go to bed at night to. I am exhausted. When I lay down I feel edgy and start tossing and turning. I have been given a sleep aid hydorzine palomate which helps take the edge off but I still can't fall asleep until about 3 or 4 in the morning. I want to say my inside feel shaky. I just don't know how to describe what I feel. Just looking for ideas or words on how to explain it.

For sure reach out to your oncologists office. I have been on it with a number of other drugs, but now only with Plavix for my blood clot. I hope you get an answer soon.
