Has cancer spread?

I had a mastectomy two years ago and I have written here before about the pain and stiffness in my joints which I thought could be caused by taking Letrozole.. I saw a Musculoskeletal specialist andhe referred me for pain management. I then had a phone call asking me to go for a MRI scan which I did in early May. I  nothing although , as asked , I let the doctor know that I had had the scan  I did  look in my nhs and surgery records but there was nothing. I went today for the appointment for the Pain management and the doctor looked through my notes and told me that they had seen  something suspicious on the scan and the cancer may have spread to the spine. I was totally unprepared for this news and  it came as a shock. I had had a nuclear medicine scan previously and all was clear no sign of cancer. I am disturbed that I hadn’t been informed that  there was evidence on the scan of something The scan was taken more than eight weeks ago. My daughter  has been unwell for months and is having her blood tested for blood cancer. My husband died 18 months ago from cancer. I am sick of cancer. Sorry this is not more upbeat but I am allowing myself to feel sorry for us for today. Just glad to get it off my chest. Xxx I️
