After my hubby was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer with mets, hes having immunotherapy & zometa. Had one cyberknife to brain & one radiotherapy to spine. After some awful side affects, bone pains gone & brain met as shrunk to a dot. Just waiting on his 3 monthly scan, hes had his 3rd immunotherapy today & 2nd zometa. He seems good apart from 2 stone weight loss.
Now I was put on a 2 week gynae pathway nearly 3 months ago & eventually got an appointment for 21st July! My GP isnt happy & is sending me for an urgent scan.
The pain I'm in & is just awful, trying everything from strong pain meds to heat pads, but I just feel ill. I just want to know whats going on inside me & pain relief, its even causing headaches now ( not sure if stress related) but just want pain relief. My appetite is zero, I'm nauseas, no energy & losing weight. I just hope my hubby doesnt have any side affects from todays treatment, as I honestly dont know how I'll cope.
This is my 2nd referal & I was on a wait & watch or whatever its called, but forgotten about. Then hubby was diagnosed & I put my probs to one side, as u do!
This as been one awful year for illness....lets see what my scan shows!
Hi Tilliboo
Welcome to the Ovarian Group.
Just to say I have popped a response to your questions in the Womb group.
If you begin to feel any worse or feel like you are not coping please do seek advice from NHS 111.
I am sorry that you are both having such an awful year for illness.
