Hello
I have had 1x chemo session so far, my 2nd is on Monday hopefully if my bloods are good.
I am getting quite sharp pains in my boob area, I wondered whether anyone else have had this? I will ask the chemo nurse Monday but woukd just be insightful to see if anyone knows or has had similar happen?
Hi Youhavegot this
Yes, I had odd sensations in the boob too. I think it is the chemo working.
My lump got softer after the first chemo. I thought it was my imagination but surgeon agreed and said it had also got smaller. This was confirmed by MRI. By the 5th chemo it was almost gone[confirmed by another MRI]. Path report after surgery was: complete clearance.
Keep going with it and hopefully your BC is having it's ass kicked too.
All the best
