Hi first time on here.

Happy new year.

Last year I was diagnosed with left sidebreast cancer and had surgery three times followed by chemo and radiotherapy. Now on tamoxifen and zoladex injection.

Over last few weeks I have heaviness sometimes on chest and also back pain comes and goes. Anyone had similar?

Trying not to over think things as I know I can.

Many thanks

    I'm sorry to hear about the symptoms you're currently experiencing. Hopefully some of our members who have had similar issues will get back to you soon but if you're worried it may be worth booking an appointment with your GP as they'll be able to let you know if it's any cause for concern.

    Our cancer nurses are available on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Froday between 9a.m - 5p.m if you'd like to speak with them about this as well.
