I'm still in shock!

Wednesday morning I got up and had a quick chat with Tony to go over our list of things to do and touch base, pretty normal everyday stuff. I was laying down on the bed, propped up on my left elbow. I shifted around and heard a pop. Tony has bad knees and always thinks any popping noise is his knee and I just let him take have credit for it. Living with me and my constant medical issues leaves him with little to no sympathy from others. So I giggled and got up and went about my morning. When I was in the shower I couldn't do much with my left arm. Once out of the shower I could hardly towel off. There was pain but mostly pressure in chest and left shoulder. Heart attack!?!?! I just knew it wasn't. So I checked my pulse and took a Xanax and my prescriptions for heart burn just in case. It didn't make since that it would be either of those types of issues because I was completely pain free and comfortable if I was still. I went to Target and couldn't even pick up a box of cake mix. I couldn't figure out what could be wrong. It must be gas. I came home and made a cake for my father in laws birthday. I took a few pain pills because now I was in a lot of pain and laid down to take a nap. By 2:30 I was scared and finally told Tony.  We agreed something was wrong and called my Dr.  The Dr asked a few questions and agreed it wasn't heart related and made an appointment for the next morning to get a chest x ray.
After the results come back the dr comes in and asks me what I have been doing. I say nothing really. She asks a few more questions and finally tells me that I broke a rib! So I think back to when the pain started and it was from when I laid on the bed! I had even given Tony credit for the popping sound!
They are going to order a bone scan to make sure the cancer has not spread to my bones, my blood work has been good so they don't think it has, but they want to rule it out. They will also do another bone density test to compare with the baseline test I had when I started my current cancer treatment because it can weaken bones. The medication along with radiation to that area and having my ovaries removed can all contribute to the brake. Even with all of this info, I am still in shock that I could brake a bone so easily. All I did was lay down, gently. I didn't flop or bounce or jump on the bed. And it was a bed! Not the ground or anything. The doctor checked to make sure the lung was ok because of course it is my good lung! In a few weeks I will have the results from the remaining tests they are doing and I will let you know. Until then, Happy Valentine's day!!!
