Hello, 
My histology is as a survivor of adenocarcinoma 3B lung that had metastaticized to my chest above my heart (plueural space). My recurrence is neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) throughout my skeleton. 
As the bone pain increases, I've noticed that I slouch to alleviate the pain. Should I have this looked at as osteoarthritis or should I just accept the beginning of contortion brought on by the bone cancer? 

 

May we all find the treatment that makes us who we once were, or a good facsimile there of.
