Doctors have advised there is no more treatment available to me !!!!

 I had a meeting today with one of my surgeons and my oncologists and was told no more treatment was forthcoming for me and effectively that was the end !

I kind of expected something like this so had prepared a 3 page letter outlining ideas and supplementary treatment including second surgical opinion and alternative drug therapy

The main one being a recently publish paper an a trial of a Chemotherapy drug called Pemetrexed which has had some success with Chordoma patients

They agreed to ask for a second surgical opinion with a team from Manchester hospital

They are also going to refer me to the oncology chemotherapy team regarding Pemetrexed
