You should tell your doctor exactly what you are feeling and you should ask for a PSMA pet test right away because if you’ve got cancer in your bones, causing that pain, you need to find out soon.
A T1c is extremely minor and it sounds like you are not at that point if you’re having all this pain and it’s from bone tumors.

2 Reactionstleech, very good advice (again) from Jeff. The pain could be unrelated to the cancer, but could indicate metastasis. Tell your doctor, best not to wait till your next scheduled exam.
