Dear alleykatt: Bone metastasis can vary a lot in terms of how it feels, it depends on where and the extent. Usually, it does not come and go. The fact that the pain comes and goes and that it is bilateral (on both sides) makes it sound less like metastasis. However, if you are concerned, you should let your doctor know. He/she look into it further and order the appropriate testing.
Are you taking tamoxifen? I understand that it can cause leg cramps, too.
No, I am not taking tamoxifen. The pain is minimal and comes and goes all day long. The pain generally lasts just a few seconds and is gone. Not sure what to make of it.
Thanks
