Bone pain from Neulasta (pegfilgrastim)

Yes, absolutely, one day at a time, @trixie1313. You've had quite a journey with cancer. I so admire your attitude. It sounds as if you have found some good medical care which is important. You've also advocated for yourself. I would never have thought about an MRI of the breast but I'll keep that in mind if anything shows up in the future.

I am very curious about your NETs. Did they present in your breast then? My second breast tumor was neuroendocrine and there is very little in the literature of a breast presentation. On my last PET scan 2 months ago, there was a very small lung nodule, too small to biopsy, so am awaiting another PET scan in a month. Hoping against hope that cancer hasn't spread there.

Trixie,
I was reading your posts and saw the nodules on the lung. Can you keep us posted on the outcome on that?? I had breast cancer in 2007, at the Mayo dr Tran was my surgeon. I had a skin sparing double mastectomy and had multiple complications from the expanders to the silicon implants, which are very painful because they cut the pectoral mussel, small slice down the middle to put the silicone in and the left side went into spasm mode. Now I have pain from that and the capsules the body makes. Anyhow I went to the mayo clinic in 2019 in September for 12 year check up and I complained about my love side of my chest I had a lot of pain and they just sent me home the doctor said you’re always complaining about pain and did nothing. By November I was so sick I had double pneumonia in my lungs and they found large cancer mass in my left long so we just remove the lobe a couple months now and I just had a CT scan And Dr. man’s Field called me back and said there’s problems with the nodules in my lungs looking like there’s cancer again, so I would love to see what you’re going to do with the nodules. Thanks for listening to me Trixie I’m really blue right now very sad that I have to keep fighting this stuff but I’m gonna do it I want to see my first grandchild born if I could ever get My son married.🤣😂😂 he is only 25. I go back September 17 and I’ll find out what they’re going to do about that, have a good night

@ahurlbert30 I have had you in my thoughts and wondering if you have thought of any other way that we can help or support you from here at Connect. Conversations so often bring up thoughts and questions that seemingly come out of nowhere. I hope your treatments are going better.
Peace, Nancy

I’m just taking it a day at a time right now. I’m looking for others with TNBC to share their stories. Everything I read is about how aggressive it is and how hard it is to treat but the statistics for 5 year survival are pretty good. I am hoping to talk with people who are past that 5 year mark.

Hi Susie - I will mention what happens next. What I am hoping is that this nodule is due to bronchiectasis or atelectasis. A few years ago I was hospitalized due to bronchiectasis with atelectasis where my lungs basically glued together. I was quite ill with the flu in the beginning of March so I'm hopeful that what showed up was inflammation from that, but time will tell. I am so very sorry you have gone through so much. As an aside, I was VERY LUCKY so far as my daughter invited me into the delivery room last June and I was there to see her daughter born. My main goal is to be here to see all my grandchildren grow up. Let us know how you do on 9/17...only think positive thoughts. I sure do wish you the best.
