i am 19 and have bone pain, it's worse
when I walk. Once every now and then, I
have abdominal pain too. Nowadays, I am
always tired, am short of breath, and have
headaches. It really isn't fun because if
I start walking for like 10 minutes, my
leg bone hurts (it hurts from the inside
of the bone).I haven't injured myself and
don't have osteoposorisis or anything. Do
I have bone cancer ? I am really worried
because all you hear about now is cancer
and I don't now if this is bad or not.
Please help me.
Thanks,
kelly l.

I dont want to scare you, but I reallly
think you should get that checked out.
My mother had bone cancer called
osteocircoma its a cancerous tumor on the
bone and it started off like a arthrites
pain and it ended up being cancer and she
had to have her leg amputated. When we
were at the doctor the doctor said that
bone cancer especailly this type is
usually found in young people: teens and
young adults. I dont wanna be rude
either but if you have any weight gain
lately or you are overweight it could be
that too. But please go get that
checked out!

Dear helping hand,
i am really really grateful that you
actually warned me of such a thing because
otherwise I would have went on doing
noraml things until it's too late. Better
safe than sorry. I am going to get it
check out right away. I weigh about 99
pounds and haven't gained any weight
lately though. The worst thing is that I
have these small bumps on my leg (it's not
really visible or anything but I can feel
it). Is the osteosarcoma thingy severe?
Again, thank you for the helpful answer.
Kelly

Yes kelly osterosarcoma is very severe its
cancer if you dont catch it on time you
can die if the cancer spreads. So please
make sure you go get it looked at. It
also could be knots in the bone due to
working yourself hard or standing all day.
I had little bumps in the shins of my
legs but it was from standing all day the
doctor said but it didnt hurt. If those
bumps hurt go get it checked out!
Love

Bone Tumor Posted: 10-30-06 06:09am
Hi there,
my name is emely, I had the same symptoms
as you, didn't hurt much first, just after
have using the leg a lot or falling or
slipping over. But then in january I fell
badly and thought I had torn the ligament
or something.
Went to a doctor who sent me to different
specialists etc, finally to do an mri scan
and x-ray.. 2 days later my doctor called
me and said I had a bone tumor called a
giant cell tumor. It had eaten 10 cm of
my bone and is now replaced with bone
cement. I have a lot of metall in my leg
and can hardly walk normally. This was
like 8 months ago.. Will never have full
capacity in my leg again.
I can see you posted this a long time ago,
but if you had something similar to what I
had, can you please send me an email as I
really would like to talk to someone that
has experienced a similar catastrophy...

Im not sure if I am experiencing the same
things as you.
I am almost 13; I weigh over 100 pounds.
When I walk, my bones under my ankle
hurts, when it touches the floor. I don't
always experience it, not when I am doing
sports, mostly when I am walking normally
on the street or something.
Do I have any problems?

HI,
That is very sad situation.
As i know so far, there is nothing that
can stop the cancers...
but i know of one thing that can prevent
you from it, or in worst case slow it
down....
Do you think you have someone in your
family with such stuff?
if you still have problems let me know
contact me @ i might have something for
you
