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.

    It could be anything but you must go straight back to the Doctor to find out hopefully they can reassure you but you must get it checked

  • 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

  • Just to also urge you to go back to the breast care team. Also get a referral to rheumatology for you ongoing joint inflammation x
