So, now that I have resolved my respiratory problems (neti pot) and have had 2 chest X-rays (clear) a lung CT-(clear, but now there is a nodule on my thyroid that requires an ultrasound)…. but, things were on the upswing, then I get this back problem--- it is an ache from my groin around to my buttocks. Research tells me that this is a common thing--but I spent all of Mother's day on the couch with heat/ice.  It is a little better today--stayed home from work and was able to get a pcp appt tomorrow---- aspirin is the only thing that seems to help--- 

What is making me crazy is that I am weeks away from getting of femora--- 5.5. years-- have for the most part been feeling fine and able to exercise, etc.  But since December when I got shingles, it feels like such a downward spiral--shingles resolve, then I get bronchitis, then allergies, now this…. I am trying so hard to fight back--- but I am wiped out!!!!!

    Congrats on staying on Femora for the 5.5 years. That is an accomplishment. Sorry these other issues are rearing there stinkin head. 

    I will be 59 in a couple of weeks. It will be,  what of my aches & pains are Arimidex, aging body, affects from chemo or bad luck.

    thanks-- amazingly, once I made the pcp appointment, I felt better--and I did stay home today and did lots of icing--- and aspirin... seems to have improved-but I am going in anyway and going to get a prescription for physical therapy.... then have my ultrasound of my thyroid next week as a result of my lung CT which was because I have been sick since December... this is crazy--- I am generally a healthy person who exercises and lives well--- feel like I am falling apart.

    However, I am soooo looking forward to going off femara by the end of May.... cannot WAIT!!!!

    I am sure this will all be fine--it just feels like too much just as summer is beginning when I can finally slow down a little.
