| Osteochondroma??
I recently found out my brother age49 has this dx. He said his doctors told him it was from receiving 'cobolt' treatments as a child of 4, for bone cancer in the leg. He now has these hard lumps on his inner forearm, forehead and several other places. I asked him if they could become cancerous? He was told nope, just a 'side effect from the cobolt? Being he had had cancer of the thigh bone wouldnt you think they would watch for reoccuring cancer??
Recently, he wakes in the morning, with a nausea that escaldes to projectile vomiting, severe stomach pain, the sweats, and feels like he is freezing. He goes into the hospital, they do blood work, ct scan. and all comes out ok? The only pattren is the am part, and symptoms, and then progression... by day three he is back like nothing ever happened. Has anyone ever heard of this? could it be related to this dx on a fluke. They told him his heart was good, gallbladder is clear and his sympotoms didnt resemble panic attacks either. Our family history has brain anurisms, heart problems, gallbladder, and
cancer. Thanks for reading I appricitate any info you can share.
