@mycuppajava not everyone has pain.❣️the pain usually happens if you have compression fractures or extensive bony disease meaning you have large lytic lesions in your bones. Thankfully, it sounds like you were caught much earlier than many at 20-30%. My husband had 75% and multiple spinal fractures.
I know waiting is really difficult and you are anxious, I am a cancer survivor as well💕, but try to breathe, and not make yourself crazy. You may never have the back and hip pain.
If you can do some reading on the sites mentioned here and get as informed as you can, this definitely helps me with anxiety and waiting.
Do you have your list of questions started for your appointment?

Thank you so much for your input. That really makes me feel better already. I do have a long list of questions. When I hear chemo, I shudder thinking about the side effects. I have not heard her spill on what she suggests, etc. so I will try not to borrow trouble until she says it. Thanks again soo much and Hugs. Peggy
