Re: Newly diagnosed mets to spine

I'm sorry you've received this news but know there are many here who have been treated for bone mets sucessfully and can help and advise you.
I'm just guessing but not sure if the spots have to be a certain size before they show, so maybe thats why this was'nt picked up in Dec?
Sending good wishes to you, stay strong and I'll be thinking of you. xx
