Hi, I was diagnosed in Sept 2021, had wide local incision,  complicated and lots of problems, had radiotherapy and I am on Anastrazole. 

A question I don't know what to do, I have been feeling unwell for nearly 2 weeks, very tired, thirsty, wee alot, itchy skin alot of hot flushes... min 6 times a day amd it hurts when presure is on the side of chest where I had the BC , I don't feel well, can't check nipple as I havnt got one, no redness just hurts to touch

Any suggestions what I should do? Or is this normal?

Thankyou 

June

    Hi June if something doesn't feel right to you especially after 2 weeks I would definitely get in touch with those in charge of your ongoing care or even your GP and let them know what's going on ,I wouldn't wait if its something new and doesn't feel right ,another thing  is Anastrozole  does create a lot of side effects one of them being hot flushes and sweats ,I'm sure there's something your GP could prescribe for those, let us know how you get on Best Wishes .
