breast to bone mets

Hi,  I was diagnosed in April with this only mine is throughout bones.  Currently getting chemo.  Had a bump in the road with my lungs.  Yes I've been told I can survive this.  That's not to say it can't come back like any cancer.  My Pet scan was very encouraging!

I wish you all the success with y our journey and what helps me is to help others!  That brings me the most joy and that's what life is all about! Happy to chat with you anytime.

bone mets

I was diagnosed in May 2014 with mets to my mandible I am taking Femara-hormone therapy. They say it isn't curable but managable there are long time survivors with bone mets and there are a lot of treatment options.

Hi

i just joined recentply after being diagnosed with 4th stage breast cancer that spread to bone in my shoulder. Initially I had breast cancer in 2007 n did the whole mastectomy, chemo radiaction n tamoxifen n completed it. Went for yearly blood tests n mammograms n ultra sound all was great til this April when I had a stiff shoulder n thought it was a frozen shoulder. But when physiotherapy didn't work then did an MRI that showed cancer in the ball of my upper arm bone. 

Radiation followed by hormone therapy now as I am oestrogen n progesterone positive. It's been 7 months n the cancer is keeping quiet n less pain in my shoulder n better mobility for my hand. My Dr is optimistic that I am responding.

It was devastating to find out the cancer returned after almost 10 years but it is what it is. I feel a bit upset that the blood work that I did were all clear with all cancer markers low but 2 months later was diagnosed with bone mets!! 

Thank God,  I have a supportive family and friends. I think we just need to keep positive n pray.
