Suggest Treatment For Severe Pain In The Bone

I was diagnosed with Stage 4 Breast cancer....it spread to my liver. I was treated with extended chemotherapy and radiation. I am 43 yrs old, taking tamoxifen, Zometa, & Zoladex. I experience severe bone pain to the point of it debilitating me where I can t get out of bed. Scans revealed I have no evidence of bone cancer, but every bone in my body aches every day. Could the combination of the tamoxifen and zometa be the cause of the pain. Until I started these 2 drugs, I never felt my bones ache this much.

Welcome to Health care magic.

The history suggest stage 4 breast cancer with liver metastasis - the symptoms you are experiencing is seen in early bony changes or metastasis.

The chemo therapy does gives musculoskeletal pain due to gradual decrease in the immunity level and nerve ending pathologies.

The drugs have a very tough action on the patient, generalised weakness, nausea, body pains, dyspeptic disorders are seen.

Hope it helps you. Wish you a good health.
