Pain

I had a breast reduction and 2 lymph nodes removed. Got a new oncologist and he says my pain in my ribs is most likely from nerve pain. I had full body bone scan and only degenerative stuff was in different parts of my body but nothing on my ribs except on spot that had a probably from radiation.

    Hello, @jmbrowning77!

    Thank you for joining the BCO community. We're sorry you have to be here, but glad you found us.

    It's good to hear that your scans mostly showed only degenerative issues. Nerve pain can be difficult to deal with, but you're not alone in this. Many people here have had similar experiences and we hope you'll hear from them soon, with tips and information that can help you navigate this situation. For now, here is an article from our main site on Pain Management, you might find it helpful.

    Come back to let us know how you're doing.
