Breast Cancer

Diagnosed 2019 had 2 lumpectomy then Radiotherapy had yearly check ups since n all clear. Taking Tamoxifen but over last 7 months have pain in my groin area which wakes me if turning over in my bed n trouble straightening n walking when I first get up it does ease a bit. Also intermittent pain in breast n shoulder. Tried several times to see Doc with pre bookable app but they are never available n don't want to be pushy n say its urgent. 

  • Hello and thank you for your post,

    I am sorry to hear that you have gone through breast cancer treatment and about the pain you have now developed.

    I am afraid that no one here can say what, if anything, is the matter. You will have to get a GP appointment to get checked out. You may also wish to let your breast care nurse know about this too. 

    I hope you can get this sorted out, In the meantime you may find it helpful to talk things through with one of the nurses on our helpline.  The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.

    Take care,

    Caroline
