I have had pain in my right elbow for about 3 weeks now for no discernible reason . I went to GP and had an X-ray which came back clear.Guess you know why I went - any new unexplainable issue brings up anxiety and that was BEFORE I watched the video above.
I need to ask some dumb questions probably .What exactly does Mets mean ? I thought as I didn’t have it at diagnosis it was a bullet I had dodged . Here am I doing my best to prevent recurrence and I didn’t even consider this down the track.What are the signs of Mets ? What treatment is available for Mets ? I read above someone has Mets but they are stable - what does that mean for our ( bad choice of words) longevity ?
I don’t want to depress either myself or anyone else and I agree with all the sentiment about living life to the fullest but really think this topic should be discussed more on the main blog page and not just tucked away in a group as sounds like 1 in 3 of us may be effected at some stage.
Should we talk about this in more detail ?As awful / awkward as it may be it won’t go away by ignoring it and maybe if we had a bit more knowledge/ awareness about it it may help not only ourselves but maybe encourage more research ??? I for one admit to being somewhat bedazzled by bc survival rates as no doubt the community is but with Mets in the equation that’s a different story that needs telling and widely.
