Don\'t give up...take one day at a time. I know it\'s beyond frustrating and I do have some idea of how you are feeling from seeing what my husband goes through...thinking of you...sending my Aussie mate a hug and will catch up with you later.
Love

Hi Swampy,
So sorry to hear your news, but maybe the ocretide will help some, its always a bugger when you find out that they didnt get it all, my daughter had her RT a year ago now, and I still wish she hadnt of needed it, she is on cabergoline now, have they mentioned that, the other name for it is dostinex.a lot of people in uk are on this, take care
Like Muriel said Swampy, don\'t let it beat you, keep that fight up, you will conquer
it, stay positive.
Just take one day at a time that\'s all any of us can do.
Take Care.
