Bone cancer

I am probably wrong. But in the last 18 mths I have broken my ribs, foot and now neck of my femur. I am only 44 and now some strange lumps have appeared on the top of my foot. My consultant who is seeing me now for a hip replacement,  looked worried and send he is sending me for a MRI and biopsy on my foot. Last 18mths I have been exhausted and my hair which used to be at my waist is now thinning and at my shoulders. Anyone have this ? 

My bones have broken due to simple falls. My hip the worst and even the consultant couldn't believe this was just falling over in my garden. 

They have pinned my hip but it has failed to heal and keep fracturing , hence the hip replacement , but now these weird lumps have appeared in my foot.

 

  • Welcome to the forum Amira although I'm sorry to read what's been going on, it sounds very tiring and painful.

    Hopefully some of our members who have had to contend with similar issues will share their experiences with you soon but do feel free to use our 'search forum' option in the blue bar above to have a look around and join in on any discussions where others are chatting about this as well.

    I hope your hip replacement is successful this time round and that the MRI and biopsy of your foot show the lumps are harmless.

    Kind regards,

  • Hi amir with all those breakages it sounds like osteoporosis (brittle bone) it can be caused by other things though, you'll know more after your foot is checked out good luck.
