Hi everyone,

I am looking for suggestions on what to try for achy chest and back pain along with a burning pain at times. My sister, who has metastatic TNBC currently only takes Paracetamol but it's not enough to let her sleep overnight. She is not keen on taking much and has had previous input from hospice nurses who arranged Oromorph and Amitriptyline. My sister didnt feel much benefit from this.

TIA

    Sorry to hear that your sister has metastatic TNBC and that she hasn't found much benefit from the meds that the hospice nurses arranged.  Would she try taking something for heartburn to see if that makes any difference?  She could get a prescription from her doctor for Pantoprazole or something similar.

    Hope this helps.

    Best wishes to you and your sister.
