      Hi all,

      I contact my nurse due to been in pain a lot round my ribs and side area. Not like the pain I get from my arthuritus which I have in my back and neck. I had scans done two weeks ago results next week. But she spoke to my consultant and called me today with scans stable still so not sure why in pain they are checking me next week. So was so pleased all stable with scans so next week when go least I will not have that sickening anxious feeling waiting for results of scans.

      thanks for all your support

          Thats good news 🙂   A couple months ago I had to give in to the pain and start pain pills. Dunno if there is something better for the pain though.

                  Hi Artie ,

                  pain is horrible to cope on a daily basis. For me due to having arthuritus it is hard to know if pain with that or tumours. Only thing I can say it feels not like my usual back pain. I have had back issues and suffered pain 24-7 every day some times got me down but I always tried to put a smile on my face despite it hurting. Have you tried a tense machine you can strap it too were you in pain most and also I was told to put something cold ice pack then heat keep changing it to help with any inflamation. Plus take your meds . 

                  So sorry you in so much pain at moment, I hope you feel better soon

                  thinking of you Artie
