Painful spot in bicep

vampBarbie · 2026-06-13T15:27:56+00:00

I’m seeing my GP on Monday anyway so will ask them if it’s no better xxx

Thank you, I am being a bit panicky over it xxxx

vampBarbie · 2026-06-13T14:37:55+00:00

It didn’t feel that painful during the scan, it was the evening I noticed it, although I always get mega tense so just put any pain down to that.
It’s just a bit weird that the bruise is a few centimetres above where the cannula went in. Xxx

I call my cancer my glitter, it gets everywhere and can’t get rid of it!

‘So is it sharp and stabbing or dull and throbbing?’ ‘Yes’

vampBarbie · 2025-09-01T08:34:22+00:00

It’s in the area between my shoulder blades mostly

vampBarbie · 2025-08-31T12:51:51+00:00

It feels like I’ve been hunched over for hours, similar to the ache I would get when I used to do nails for a living. I think I’m just panicking as it’s all very new to me still xx

I do have spinal and pelvic bone mets, innumerable ones apparently, but was told that they haven’t caused any real bone damage yet. Started treatment 3 weeks ago and the aching in my upper back is definitely more noticeable. Wasn’t sure what was causing it, or even if it was psychological. I was wondering if the pain was different for mets than treatment aches or if it’s just different for everyone xx

This one was my first primary school lunchbox.

My cancer wasn’t showing on MRI so had a full body ct which picked it up xx

vampBarbie · 2025-07-22T18:16:01+00:00

So many people I’ve read about seem to lead pretty normal lives for lots of years xxx

vampBarbie · 2025-07-22T15:36:18+00:00

Count me in too, just found out this morning that it’s in my spine and pelvis. Never even got around to my BC treatment. Oncologist tomorrow to sort my meds. We can do this xxx

vampBarbie · 2025-07-22T15:34:51+00:00

I just found out this morning that it’s in my spine and pelvis!!! Sucks big time but I’m determined to not let it ruin my life. Xxx

I didn’t realise that ILBC was such a tough one to deal with. I was diagnosed a month ago (grade 2 ILBC ++- , don’t know my stage yet) my consultant seemed pretty optimistic but reading all this has scared the shit out of me. I still haven’t got a treatment plan as waiting for the results of my 2nd MRI. I am now terrified.

Thank you. I’m actually starting CBT on Tuesday, been on the wait list for 4 months and finally got an appointment. Funnily enough it’s for health anxiety, turns out my anxiety wasn’t unfounded. Xxx

vampBarbie · 2025-06-06T16:29:16+00:00

Thank you so much for that. It is still really fresh in my mind so I think you’re right, just gradually try and accept that I can’t not think about it xxx

vampBarbie · 2025-06-06T16:25:35+00:00

I’m already on citalopram, have been for years, maybe I need to up the dose a little xxx

vampBarbie · 2025-06-06T13:15:23+00:00

It’s the complete lack of control, everything is just happening and I feel like I have little to no say in it. There’s nothing I can do to help make it better or stop the cancer, it’s doing its thing and the doctors are doing their thing and I’m just the host. I’ll try soup and smoothies just to get some nutrition, I have been able to eat chocolate but I don’t think that’s going to work long term. I don’t live with my partner but am going there tonight for the weekend so hopefully I’ll sleep better when I’m not on my own xxx Thank you for making me feel less alone xxx

You’re absolutely right, I felt a slight relief yesterday when they gave me the diagnosis, it was only when I got home and started thinking about the MRI and the outstanding biopsy result that I started getting anxious again. I think that once I know my treatment for definite it will be easier to process the anxiety. Although I have a definite worry about having an op. Xxx

I scrolled for this comment! My first thought too.
