Hi … I’m wondering if anyone can share their experience with severe back stabbing pains … 

just over a year ago I had my radiotherapy, after lumpectomy and both breast reconstruction… 

I am now getting really severe pains in my back between my shoulder blades and I’m thinking some tissues were damaged , I know this happens … normal pain killers arnt touching the pain I’m just wondering if anyone else can relate ? 

  • Hi, sorry to hear you're struggling with back pain, I must admit, I've had stabbing pains in my breast,  but not my back. Wonder if it's worth a chat with your GP?  Best wishes

  • Yes I’ve contacted my breast care nurse , she doesn’t seem too worried I’m still struggling so I may go to my doctors soon … 

    Thankyou for replying x 

  • Hi, I hope your feeling better.  I can relate to this post. About three weeks ago I started to get back pain between my shoulder blades to and sometimes my lower back. Mt chest also feels a bit tight. I took myself to gp, he listened to my lungs and said I had a slight wheeze, didn't seem too concerned. Put me on antibiotics, which haven't worked. I'm still feeling rubbish. Not sure what's going on. I'm on tamoxifen which isn't helping either.
