Hi guys im half way through radiotherapy to the left breast, I have got the side effects of being sore etc, but has anyone experienced like pain in the site/shooting pains while coughing/sneezing itSee no evilleft me with pain which i dunno weather in the lung or just where its working?? See no evil

  • I had 15 sessions of Radiotherapy but didn't get any shooting pains.  I did get a cough and a sore throat and asked one of the radio therapist if it was caused by the treatment as it didn't feel like a cold and they confirmed it was more than likely. 

    I suggest you ask one of the radio therapists, mine always asked how I was prior to treatment,  or speak to your oncologist for reassurance.

    Good luck x

  • I had 15 sessions of radiotherapy and I also experienced shooting pains however I have also had surgery. The shooting pains were worse though when I was having radiotherapy and probably for around 4 weeks afterwards. Mines could happen at any time! Hopefully it's the radiotherapy doing it's job.

    All the very best with your recovery.
