Hello
I wondered if anyone else on here has got or has heard of Carcinoid Syndrome?
I am currently having tests to confirm i have it.
I have suffered for last 18 months with chronic diahrea and facial flushing. Pain under left rib.
I am recovering at the moment from thyroid cancer and my oncologist has now just done blood tests on calcitonin, cga levels and 24 urine levels for serotinin.
I believe if any come back raised this means i have tumour somewhere in body. (prob liver)
Please if anyone knows or has this can you talk to me about how you cope with these awful symptoms. (now housebound)
Dawn
