OH Joy!
This TOO shall pass. We are always severely tested when there is some new progression of our disease. However, you should at least talk with your doc's nurse case manager. Or the onc OR a good rad onc about this immediately. At my clinic - the second there is a "bad" report, an appt is made with someone or a group of docs who have gone over your case. This is all within a day or two. They do not let us go through a long period of bemoaning and imagining all kinds of things.

I know several women who have had lesions on their spine successfully treated. One is an older lady who had SIX spots radiated and that is 2 years ago. Now that lady's sister of 72 just had a lumpectomy!

let us know what the docs recommend - and do NOT let them make you wait around to find out.
