I am beginning to realise this, 3 months ago one of the registered stated to me there is nothing more we can do for you but manage your pain, I left the cancer centre feeling so discouraged. I have now seen my proper oncolgist who has given me much hope with options of other treatments to try and stabilise the cancer from spreading further. I have much hope now and I am very positve, I am also taking herbal teas that have really helped me with my movement, etc as well. Thanks for your post, I live in NSW, ST Marys
