    So, I think, ( hope) I have the pain diagnosed! I went to a new Dr who almost immediately after having me describe my symptoms, had a diagnosis! He is 99.9999% sure that I have an inflammation where the ribs join the cartilage. I have ALL of the symptoms; he said I am practically textbook for Tietze Syndrome ( I could't help but hear TEATS in that name!) The Dr even suggested I Google it...lo and behold "It can be a side effect following radiation therapy to the chest or BREAST~even years after treatment"...well, la di da!

    He gave me a one week supply of Celebrex, and said that he wouldn't be surprised if I wasn't feeling measurably better by Sunday! So, no cancer, and a benign condition hopefully alleviated by meds. OMG~ I was gonna ask if you all have any idea how relieved and happy I am. Of Course you do!!!!

    Thanks for all of your watch-care and concern...I love you guys!

    Hugs,

    I am so happy you are finally getting to the bottom of your pain. I hope the celebrex works its charms and I am Happy and relieved with you....Have a nice long dance with Ned.
    Love, Jackie

    Woo-hoo, Claudia. Pop those
    Woo-hoo, Claudia. Pop those pills, and look forward to feeling better soon. Congratulatins on the diagnosis, although we all know that the pain can be physical as well as mental. Now that the mental part is answered, let's get on with healing the physical. Hugs.

    Good deal
    Claudia, wow that's amazing that this new doctor was able to diagnose you like that. He sounds really good. I hope the meds take care of this problem by Sunday. It sounds like it will! You'll be extra happy dancing in the firelight this weekend with your Reggie!

    Measurably Better By Sunday!
    Wow, Claudia, not just a diagnosis but a med to relieve your symptoms, at last. You have been so brave through all of this: the pain, the tests, the waiting. Aortus and I are relieved and happy for you. You and Reggie can truly have a wonderful weekend!

    leave it to our 50ft woman
    So glad it is not cancer related, but, of course you would want to get something called Teats Syndrome. It all fits in anyway, gotta be the boobs!
    Have a great weekend, and I think Reggie deserves his hair combed and braided with a huge sigh of relief!

    Swing Your Partner, Do Si Do
    My pain has NOT been identified....but according to my mammogram, my MRI and the exam done by my excellent breast specialist surgeon, I have to ask if I may please break in with whomever is dancing with NED at this moment! She sees nothing suspicious and has assured me it is NOT a recurrance!!!She is not sure what it is, but she is leaning toward thinking it is perhaps muscular-skeletal. I will do some further sleuthing to find out what in the world is going on. But for now, ( and until my oncologist appointment on September 1) I am dancing, and dancing and dancing!!!!!

    Thanks for all of the concern; you all are without a doubt THE BEST ever!

    Hugs,
    Chen♥

    Awesome
    That is great new!!!!! Now Promanade.
