I had had pain in my sternum off and on since January, but I thought it was possibly costochondritis due to a chronic cough I had been dealing with for some time. Anyway, in May it was so painful (in my upper sternum and radiating to the right side) that my PCP ordered a chest CT that was "highly suspicious for metastatic breast disease".

Jan 7, 2025 · I was first diagnosed in 2009 at age 48 with stage 1, IDC. Fifteen years later, in June of 2024, I was diagnosed stage IV with mets to one spot in sternum and some possible lymph nodes in anterior mediastinum (only sternum was biopsied). So I …

In November 2023 she began having pain in her sternum. A CT scan & bone scan showed signs of solitary sternal metastasis. At that time the onc was saying there was very little visible cancer. She had a biopsy completed in December and there was no evidence of cancer. At that time the onc suggested we wait 4 months and follow up in May.

Jan 10, 2025 · @livinglifenow I’m feeling the aches now and seem to be a little more tired and I do take the anastrozole at night.

I was actually shocked and embarrassed, and burst into tears. What they were concerned about was an area on my sternum and remaining breast that is like a big hard lump. My sternum fractured right there and healed strangely. I have a large hard lump from the sternum, and a super tight muscle next to it, "flowing" onto the remaining breast.

Jan 12, 2025 · I had one small bone met in upper sternum and some possible mets to soft tissue in mediastinum and lymph nodes in same area. Only the sternum was biopsied. ER+ (90%), PR+ (30%), HER2+. I started on HP protocal and anastrozole the end of July 2024. No chemo. End of September 2024: NED on PET/CT. I took a 3 month holiday from treatment.

Saw thoracic surgeon who ordered a pet scan. The mass was positive and also there was an internal mammary node too but not the pulmonary nodule . And finally I got the diagnosis after biopsy. ER+ PR+. Waiting for her 2. Nervous as I will need radiation as they cannot remove the mammary node.

YAY) and a CT chest scan last Friday because I've been having pain that is gradually getting worse in my sternum and now ribs.The CT scan from Friday is what found the lung lesions. Onc said that normally lung cancer does not cause pain, but that I may have lesions in the lining of the lung that attaches to my sternum, which could be causing ...
