Dear Bev,
Thanks for your reply. The tumor on spine had nothing with the BC, it was totally separate. In fact I had had a bone scan a yr before with pain in back, trouble breathing, etc, they called it arthritis. Think someone missed a diagnosis if you ask me.
Anyway it was a fluke that they discovered it, radiation oncologist says the 18 treatments should make it disappear, has not so far. Am seeing a spine specialist on Fri before chemo. I hope they won't want to add anything else, can hardly handle what they are doing now.
Hope this finds you doing well with no problems. After I get this back issue resolved and can sleep flat without excruciating pain, I should be on the road to recovery I hope. Am to go out of town for Thanksgiving to visit family in CA, hope I'm not going to have to cancel my trip.
After I get thru on Fri will try to send you an e mail to let you know the outcome. Of course they'll probably want to do an MRI, have to get it scheduled and results in, everything seems to move like a snail when you want results. And on top of it my ins is not paying much on my chemo treatment, saying it's patient responsibility. They're paying 100% of everything else, refusing to handle the chemo, it's been a nightmare. Still trying to sort thru this and applied for some financial assistance thru Onc office.
