Answers:
You could seek out a second opinion. You do not mention the stage of the disease or how long you've been in treatment. All of these things factor into treatment. As you probably know by now osteosarcoma is an aggressive bone cancer. There is treatment for it, but it is harsh.
You may need to make some tough choices in regards to further treatment.
I would suggest you read as much as you can about the disease and what options may be available to you. Support groups can also be a really good source.
