I was wondering if anyone can help I am 20 months clear of bc have taken tamoxifen which didn't agree with me commenced letrozole and zoladex and have suffered with terrible pain in bones joints etc.i have had a break from these but it appears they are not the cause. My breast has shrunk and now seems to have 3 dents in it and what looks like a ball shape next to my nipple.is this normal after treatment or should I be worried.
Hi JMR yes I'd go straight to your breast care team, it could be just healing in the breast, mine too has a hard lump around scar area but oncologist will keep an eye on it as I only had surgery in october. They've also told me that chemo can weaken your bones so maybe its a result of that if you've had any..hope you get sorted.xx
