Connie B Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 Robin, Are you on the same chemo you have posted on your PROFILE? As for your lung pain, it could be caused from just about anything. I never had lung pain from chemo, but I did have it from my radiation. May I ask you to please update your PROFILE and if you would be so kind as to maybe put in the year you were diagnosed. It really helps us to help you if your profile is spelt out and easy for us to understand. Thank you. If your chest pain continues, I really think you should call your doctor. This is nothing to try and second guess. Chemo is a POWERFUL drug and you need to keep your doctor informed of any changes you are having. Good luck and I hope your feeling better soon.

blaze100 Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 Hi Robin, Yes Connie is right. This could be anything. Did you have your heart checked out before starting chemo. Pain in the back left side can be sign of heart problems. Chemo can be very hard on the heart. Barb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patti B Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 Robin - Did you have a Neulasta shot the day after chemo?? I know they say it could be problems if the pain is in your shoulder blade area - but......just a thought. Patti B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
