Sorry to hear this, I had similar news a year ago, with luck you will have a good deal of support from your health team. I was shocked when I heard my diagnosis but my pain team are still working hard to find the right meds to give me. Good luck and let us know how you get on. Phillip.

Than you so much hopefully now I will get a bit better as the pain is bad I've not slept for a couple of nights and I'm worried about finances as I have always worked but when I fractured the 4 Ribs and Smashed vertebrae 20 months ago I had to leave job to heavy care assistant so I've went from having a wage to benefits over night is there any help we are entitled to? Xx
