Wow! To all in this discussion. My husband is due to have his first liver debulking in March. He's in octreotide and other than some minor diarrhea has had no other symptoms. Although he recently is having some wobblyness, not vertigo when walking. Went to ENT found out he had 30% nerve damage in his ear. He's currently going through PT to help with the wobblyness. His curve Oncologist doesn't seem to think the octreotide could be a reason. His family Dr says if the PT doesn't work he'll look again at his current meds for blood pressure, cholesterol etc..... however he's adjusted what he thought would make a difference but it didn't help. Had anyone else had any hearing issues or wobblyness while being on octreotide or with just having NETS in general? Also, I can't see who to address this to but the person who had the METS in the bone, could I ask where yours originated from and how long it took to get to the bone? I'll keep y'all in my thoughts and prayers as I know this has to be very difficult.

Hello @sandy23,

The person who recently mentioned bone METs is @jenntx10. I hope that she will answer some of your questions about her situation.

I can't say that I've heard of hearing issues or wobbliness being caused by octreotide or NETs in general, however everyone does deal with meds and disorders differently. By "wobbliness" do you mean dizziness or gait/balance problems?
