    Hi shellyBon 

    I don’t have any experience to offer as I have a different cancer with a different pattern of metastasis (liver mets from triple negative breast cancer) but didn’t want your post to go unanswered.

    I can understand where you are with this - it's wrong if there is treatment available and it's not being given.
