Sore arm

Pharmmom

Hi

I had my mastectomy in 2002.  Lately my arm has been so sore.  Its not swollen its just sore.  The muscles and the shoulder.  Anyone else have this problem?  I am also on Arimidex for the past 5 years.

My arm is sore again and it hurts at times along with my shoulder.  Diagnosed with Rotary Cuff Tendonitus Bursitis.  I was given a cortizone shot, but it's hurting again....bummer!

My arm is sore right now too.  I did some agressive yard work a month and a half ago and while it didn't swell or anything, it has taken a long time to feel better.  It still isn't quite right yet.  I am so tired of not feeling normal anymore.  Every time my arm gets sore or tingles or just feels strange, I worry that there is something more going on then just the result of my surgery.

I have chronic upper arm/shoulder/upper back pain---I work with a massage therapist but when it gets worse, I get it injected, as noted above.

If you have an ortho, get an appt and ck it out.

Good idea dottie I think I will give him a call.  Its pretty sore today and starting to drive me nuts.  I take tylenol or naproxen.  Its like a muscular shoulder, arm and finger/joint ache.
