Cancer Pain

Posted by patti1952 @patti1952, Jul 21, 2018

My pain is unbearable, keeps me up at night. Has anyone had so much pain in the shoulders spread to upper back now spread to my upper arms. Ive seen a chiropractor for weeks, and now had a professional message. They felt great but hasn’t helped. I’ve heard this could be a sign of cancer. I’d this true. Has anyone had this experience??? FRANKLY I’m scared

Hello @patti1952

I appreciate your posting about your pain and your fears of cancer. Have you been to a doctor to have tests that might help to diagnose your pain? If not, this might be a good place to start. Your primary care doctor can probably start the process and then refer you to a specialist if needed.

Your pain could be something very simple to diagnose and treat.

Keep posting, I am looking forward to hearing how you are doing.

Teresa
