I have been diagnosed with a pheo for three years now and am being treated with blocking drugs by a london hospital but have been told it is inoperable - I am 60year old female, the blocking drugs have some bad side effects.
I hear that there are trials in the UK of a new treatment called high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) and I wonder if you have any information on this please?
regards
Carolyn
