Hi All,
We are now 2 months post diagnosis and it has been a dizzying round of appointments and tests. I have updated my profile to show my husbands diagnosis and so far he has had hormone injections and a session of radiotherapy to target the worst mets in his thigh and pelvis which cause the most pain. He starts chemo on Wednesday next week.
Can I please ask if anyone has had or been offered bone strengthening treatment on the NHS and if so, did you find it helped? We have been told that this is no longer part of the NHS protocol to be offered but not sure if this is just in our case or across the board.
We have booked to see a private oncologist in a weeks time through our medical insurance for a second opinion and to see if this might be available privately. However, I'm interested to hear anyone else's experience of this and if it helped.
Many thanks.
