Hi
13 yrs ago I had oestrogen positive breast cancer Right side masectomy since then no problems about 5 weeks ago I had a sore left breast went for a fast tracked mammogram which was clear but sent for a bone scan due to history something showed up so sent for an MRI scan which showed Mid humeral shaft Metastasis sent for a CT scan new years eve now waiting for results and to see a consultant
To add I've had a sore arm for some months now had an op Feb 25 for a torn bicep tendon
I'm climbing the walls with worry is this normal to have to wait so long to see someone
Hi, I was diagnosed with secondaries in bones in December 2024. I needed a intramedullary nail in left femur and then another nail in right humerus in January 2025. It felt it was the worst time of year to be waiting for results / treatment plan, but we did get on that road eventually! At the beginning it just felt like one thing after another and I was so worried about how long I was waiting. But 1 year down the line it not so overwhelming and frantic xx
