Hi all. I’m very new to this community area. I have been looking for a support site for chats etc. A brief introduction- I collapsed in Feb 2024 and was diagnosed with spinal cord metastasis and lung mets too. The primary was in my right kidney. There is no treatment for my spinal tumour so I have had many treatments to slow the process. I was given 6-12 months and that was almost 2 years ago in Feb 2026. I had no symptoms that I could think of and only had severe neck pain and a shingles type rash two months before I was diagnosed. I remember having a couple of urine infections and one episode of blood in my urine which I was treated for as urine infections.
just wondered if any one else had similar diagnosis?
best wishes Kim
