Hi I was DX with mets to the bones, lung and liver 2 weeks ago. It came as a shock because I felt so well. Just goes to show how quickly things can change. I was aware of a niggly pain develoiping where the liver sits, then 2 nights ago the pain flared up to be probably the worst pain I can remember(I am a lady of senior years so my memory could be off target there) I contacted the BNC who spoke to the onc and he has prescribed a 4 weeks course of steroids. I know from past experience that getting a decent nights sleep now is very unlikely. This is before I start my new chemo regime tomorrow. Also the painkillers he has suggested made me feel very sick and shaky. I feel as if I have turned into a poorly pathetic heap of a person. Can anyone reassure me that this will pass and I will be able to find a new normal and cope. Thank You
Andie
