It's hard for me to find any info on this subject. Has anyone's breast cancer metastesized to their bones? What were your treatment options?

sorry, not me
It has not happened to me, but I know of some it has happened to. I believe I have read at least one post on this site, but I do not know who. Maybe she will respond and give you some help. Have you posted to the other boards on this site? I'm sure you have already, but talk to your Doc, too.

Good luck in your search, seof

Hi Hope, those aren't the words anyone wants to hear and I'm sorry you have to deal with it.
I think radiation is one option and probably chemo too. Keep your chin up we've come a long way in cancer tx. There is another site that might be helpful too. www.breastcancer.org
There is a discussion on recurrence and mets there. You just posted that you had been on Arimidex didn't you? How long ago was that? Good luck and all my best to you.
