Hi just discovered the pain I've had in my back for nearly a year is. Secondary breast cancer that it is in my spine pelvis and ribs this has been really hard on my sister as she is really angry at the signs missed for a diagnosis early me I am having feelings of guilt is this normal to feel guilty about something that wasn't my fault and couldn't be avoided .

  • So sorry to hear this Snozie. My wife is in a similar situation, she only mentioned she had a bad back at a check-up, then off for a scan, and bam, it's in 5 vertebrae.

    We're holding on to the fact that cancer in your bones isn't likely to cause too many problems, and there are treatments, and new treatments coming along too. 

    Please make sure they get your pain under control. You shouldn't have to live with any pain, and hopefully you'll still live a long and happy life!
