Mets in lower spine and pelvis - does anyone else suffer with this?

Hi all

i have mets in lower spine and pelvis. When I sit or lay down I can feel it in my buttocks/lower back. It doesn’t hurt but is a bit disconcerting. Does anyone suffer with this or can feel their cancer?  Have just had another MRI and am dreading that it may have gone walkabout again, or have gotten worse. 

Many thanks

  • I also have mets in lower spine and pelvis and I’m in agony. On morphine for pain, but barely helps. Radiotherapy for 5 days next week could help, but could take months. Breast cancer also in liver and lungs for which I’m about to start treatment. Really scared. But I have been in (undiagnosed) pain since April so at least ‘moving forward’ now. Can’t quite believe that I could have any quality of life back. Anyone else been through this? B/w all

  • Hi weary one

    thank you for your reply.

    i am so sorry to hear you are in pain. Have you spoken to the macmillan nurses; there surely must be something they can give you to stop this. 

    I was in bits whenI was first diagnosed, but now take comfort from the fact that a lot can be done nowadays to help us and increase the quality and quantity of our lives. 

    please feel free to chat anytime, as we are all in this together.

    My very best wishes
