Hi, my bf has lyctic lesions on his spine that have not been confirmed as ss. His dr is giving him something that is used to help osteoporosis. It supposedly encapsulates the cancer. I’m sorry I don’t have the name of the drug. His Dr is Dr.Gerald Rosen at NYU Langone. He knows his stuff. Hope that was helpful.

We have sent our stuff to Dr. Rosen so our current doctor told us if we don’t see results we will go there hopefully we can get accepted for a trial drug they have. On the other hand that is extremely far from Oklahoma! Whatever it takes!
I think what is frustrating the most right now to him is that you wouldn’t have a clue that he has cancer by looking at him!!! Or is this how the cancer is?

Yes this is how cancer can be more often than not, a silent killer :-(
