Hi i just wondered if anybody has had a giant cell tumour?i had one in my spine hip and pelvis a few years ago and i would like to know how anyone else is coping after anything similar.
Welcome to Cancer Chat! I hope others who have had a giant cell tumour will see your post and respond soon. How have you been coping yourself? I hope you have been recovering well from it.
I had a Giant Cell Tumour removed from my Sacrum some years ago, and am currently in need of advice as i try to manage my chronic pain and associated muscle weakness as a result of the tumour and operation to have it removed.
Is there a forum/ discussion where I could connect with those that have been through the same thing?
Have you spoken to your doctor about how you are getting on? If not maybe you could book an appointment to discuss your situation with them and see what help and support they can provide. I would also recommend giving our cancer nurses a call as they will be able to give you information and advice on managing your symptoms as well. If you are in the UK you can call them from a UK landline for free on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m.
I have done a little bit of research and have found an area on the SarcomaUK website where you can find out more about connecting with others who have been in a similar situation to yourself. Just click here to find out more.
