@a2dc2dc I understand how frightening it is to have these symptoms and no answers. I also want to encourage you to journal your symptoms by day and time of day. This will greatly help your physicians. Of course you are frightened that you have a scary diagnosis like cancer. That scares us all. I know you will follow up with your physician and specialists however I'm wondering if you've already consulted with specialists other than oncology? Neuroendocrine specialist? Rheumatologist? Please let us know and do know that we all care very much for you. You have come to the right place online for support.

Be sure that you are kind to yourself. Do things you like that make you smile. Having a positive attitude makes a difference. My doctor truly believes I am still alive because of my attitude. I refuse to spend one minute agonizing over when it will get worse. It is what it is and I am in battle mode, but I will enjoy every minute of my life. Hopefully, you doctor networks with with other doctors. Hang in there. Medicine has come a long way. God bless

Oh thank you so much, I truly love your words. I feel alone sometimes, because the people I love at times feel like it is in my head or just fed up with all the appointments and no results. I have seen the endocrinologist and he did not see or believe there to be anything serious going on besides low Vitamin D levels, Have no seent a Rheumatologist. I will definitively add them to my list of people to talk to.
