Feeling tight and pain around my right rib, a bit concerned.
Hi
I can’t comment on this particular symptom as I haven’t experienced it but I have been to my GP on several occasions regarding new pains etc. I was diagnosed in June 2022. It was very reassuring as they educated me re pains from likely metastasis versus other bodily pains. I very rarely attend my GP in general but they had complete understanding and compassion. Certainly didn’t make me feel I was wasting their time. I would certainly recommend visiting your GP for peace of mind. Good luck
Not symptoms I can comment on, but I presume you are on regular scans, and that you have been given nurse contact details etc.?
Perhaps if you don't want to trouble a GP, speak to one of those nurses?
