Also I dont know if you want to look into this but Local external beam radiation therapy effectively treats painful bone metastases

When cancer spreads into the bone, it usually creates pain. If there is one or just a few areas of significant bone pain, the best way to gain relief is to get rid of those areas of cancer.

Local external beam radiation therapy effectively treats painful bone metastases. This treatment provides substantial or complete pain relief in more than 85% of people for a significant period of time, without the sedation and constipation associated with opioids (pronounced OH-pee-oydz; also called narcotics).

Pain from diffuse bone metastases (many areas of cancer throughout the bone) is best treated with an opioid and an anti-inflammatory agent. Chemotherapy or tamoxifen can be very effective at getting rid of cancer cells in all areas of bone involvement. External beam radiation therapy can be given to one or just a few areas that are causing the most pain.

Diffuse pain can also be treated with bisphosphonate medications such as Zometa (chemical name: zoledronic acid) or Aredia (chemical name: pamidronate disodium). These medicines help stop bone destruction caused by metastatic disease, reduce pain, and keep blood calcium levels normal.

Keeping the painful area from moving is sometimes helpful. For example, you can wear a sling until you're done having radiation to a painful shoulder metastasis. Some people need orthopedic surgery to prevent or repair fractures that result from bone weakening caused by cancer.

all the best Ray
