Pain after testing is this normal?

gkidsnana

hello,

I had a port placement on Wednesday, ct scan with contrast and bone density scan on Thursday. Last night and today the middle of my chest is tight and sore along with the back of my neck.Should I be worried?

Sorry you're in pain. Best to let your surgeon know.

ksusan, I have not had surgery as that is coming after chemo. Am wondering if this is my body’s way of fighting all the nasty radioactive stuff they put for CT and bone scans

You had the port placed, right? That's what I'm referring to.

I had a lot of chest soreness after my first and third port placement.

Could it be from all the table laying you've had to do for the tests?? I ached for days after an MRI because of how I was positioned.
