collarbone and shoulder pain

Hello SandraC

I had radiotherapy around 11 months ago, lumpectomy left breast and 5 rads. All good.

I'd be interested to see what comes back from our fellow survivors, as I too have quite intense shoulder pain, mainly at the front and right in the joint area.

I am tempted to link this to the overall aches and pains that anastrazole are giving me. I might ask a nurse on here.

Much love, Hopeful one :-)

thank you Hopeful one. I'm not taking any medication now so i don't know. I have been discharged. But this is recent. I have also had pains in my scar area and two more check-ups for the possibility of recurring cancer. Both were negative. I'm wondering about bone thinning perhaps. I've had no trauma to my shoulder. Just recently had a chest X ray - maybe it will reveal something. My GP says that scar tissue can react to the climate! but this feels like it is under my shoulderblade - in my chest too. Oh good luck with the overall aches and pains. I took Letrozole for a while and it was horrible. But they do go. Hang in there.
