    Call the doctor and tell
    Call the doctor and tell them what is going on. They will probably want you to go in to be checked. I hope it's nothing. Hugs.

    Stuff like this can happen
    I've heard of pain like this coming on. Mostly, it is something like nerve pain and surgery related. But, yes, absolutely you should see your oncologist about it. Don't wait, just do it because it might not get better on its own. I don't want you to be in pain!

    Have you had radiation? I
    Have you had radiation? I went through the same prob. about 3 weeks ago & finally last Thurs. the radiation onc. said he throught it was "soft tissue damage" from radiation. I had every test imaginable at the hospital. The pain is lessening somewhat.

    Hope you can get some relief. Hugs & prayers....

    Hi Tasha, i had a some pain
    Hi Tasha, i had a some pain in that area, although it was not real bad. I had a masectomy and i had an expander put in, so they told me it was from the expander. It did go away eventually. But, I do think yu need to let your doctor know. it could also be gallbladder related. Good Luck to you..Take care

    Hi tasha
    Call your doctor and ask about it. You will feel better and thats what they are here for. For what its worth, I had bilateral mastectomy and had to sleep on my back for a whole month cuz I just couldnt get comfortable.

    Please call the doctor so you can ease your mind...besides, if it is something its best to deal with it right away.

    Hugs

    Tasha,
    I definitely think
    Tasha,
    I definitely think you should call your doctor. Don't just wait for it to go away. It could be absolutely nothing but the only one who can tell you that is your doctor.
    And what happened with the eye cauliflower thing? Was it a filiform wart? Or have you been seen yet by the dermatologist? Or did you already reply to this and I just missed the post?
    I hope both of these are big, fat nothings.

    Thanksgiving is coming up and well, we won't go there. Doggie, the other white meat. I tried to bonsai but I got only ended up with dogwood trees and cattails. Go figure. I think Pammy has been messing with the pet's also. Fun with science. LOL
