Breast Pain

by Carmen2008, Mar 29, 2009 02:57PM
Hi I am 34 years old.  Recently I have a pain in my right breast. Sometimes the pain goes to my chest and my arm.  2 Months ago I went to see my doctor and told me to have mamogram (mammogram) test, the result came out normal but the pain didn't go away. Again went to see my doctor and told me I have to do chest x-ray and after the x-ray he told me that the x-ray shows that I have arthritis pain in my chest but the pain is still in my right breast and arm.  My question is, is it normal to have arthritis pain in the chest and have pain the breast? I'm worried that the pain in my breast is related with breast cancer? Please respond to me as soon as possible.

I wouldn't be worried about the pain being related to breast cancer. I would be concerned as to the definite cause for the pain ..... arthritis sounds plausable as an explanation but I think I would push for more investigation. Did the Dr. prescribe any type of medication or other therapy for the arthritis ?? If not I would ask if there is something that would offer some relief from the pain. You might try posting on the "Arthritis" and also the "Family Medicine" Forums. What you describe doesn't say breast cancer to me.    Good Luck
