    Hello there. I just want to tell you to try not to worry. (I know - easier said than done!) A few months after my surgery last August, I have had constant pain in my right shoulder in the back. I had CT scan in December and was told it is nothing. Mine is a kind of burning pain also. Stay calm until your visit with your onco. Hang in there!

    Wondering if you pulled a muscle? The muscles that run across your back into your ribs are very stringy and it is really hard for me to distinguish from bone pain or muscle pain. Muscle pain usually burns.  I seriously hate how everything that we would have ignored now keeps us up at night.  Hope you get some good news soon.
