Just like to ask the community your thoughts on the best ways of dealing with bone pain. At this time it comes and goes, extremely painful thankfully doesn't last more than a minute or two

    Thanks for all replies the surgeon debacle was back in January phoned a palliative coordinator today not great bless them got a number for Marie Curie anyway feel very tired today due to be woken up by sweats due to my hormone treatment. On Tamoxifen 20mg once a week supposed to control my sweats unfortunately not working, anyone got any ideas? I will get back on the phone but not till Tuesday my being needs to regroup. 

  • Hi I am pleased you phoned someone but how disappointing you didn't get help there and then. Marie Curie are definitely the people who know all about meds and what works for what. When you have waited this much, another few days hopefully don't seem too long! Please tell them everything so they have the big picture, as well as the pain, the sweats and the tiredness! Good luck!

    Dear ,

    Sorry to hear of your pain, and the confusion with the different consultants, nurses and GPs.

    The only way to get fast attention is to make like a great  sweeping wheel. Tell  every one of them how you feel. What do they think is causing the pain?  My docs make sure my fit D3 is> 40 and my calcium levels are normal. 

    Keep up the good fight for yourself and asking your doctors what could be causing the pain.

    Warm regards,

    Millie
