Ive had P.N for 6 years also, Cervical, Lumbar Spine problems. My body can feel like an overall fatigue, or aching? Ive had injections for pain in my Cervical spine and meet with my Specialist again in January. Should our conversation about all of these factors be included? Thanks, Darcy

No doctors seem to know anything about this disease
Some havent even heard of it or encountered it -like my family doctor for example.
Yes cancer could be a factor for sure
Who knows?
Trial and error at this point
More trial studies are needed and clinical investigation in research labs for sure
Hope your husband is doing ok
My mom had 3 kinds of cancer
Lip then breast then final was lung which finally took her away from me
My dad or anyone else in my family like grandparents had no cancers.
Take care everyone
Keep calm and carry on
One day at a time is all we can do

One member suggested a Hematologist which is a great choice as my husband that has had RA for over 30 years, also surviving a spinal cord injury, & was just almost beat down was referred to a Hematologist and was diagnosed with a form of Leukemia which has been under control w/seeing this Hematologist! Both of my parents had different types of the big "C" as my dad called it as it CANCELS you out, I may get brave & force myself to see his Hematologist as Cancer could be the underlying problems for some of us w/this devasting, horrific disease we have been diagnosed with. Just my theory, or IMO!😲
