My MLBC to a vertebrae is MBC to bone, w/ a 2cm lesion on Vertebra discovered in12/23. Zometa was suggested to me even though the scan in March showed no change. It appears to me it's just protocol to a certain degree. I am very healthy except for having had crummy misdiagnosis and substandard surgeries for LBC in Florida since 2012. So I have had no chemo, some radiation after I found a tumor in left armpit (all BC was in left breast only, but had double Mas.
I am estrogen positive so take low dose Anastrozole since 1/23 and I take very good Bone Desnsity natural Pill by Jarrow along w/ there D3 that has K in it....and other holistics. I feel fine, and questioned the Zometa --PA said it was to avoid bone fractures in the future. Im 62.
I have a lot of dental work and had oral bone & gum issues for a long time. So I am worried about the ONJ & see Dental Specialist for a consult on my teeth/bone health. I feel if I eat very healthy which I have bascially , but will be even more vigilant w/ good calcium, etc. supplements and foods....I can monitor my status as planned every 3 mos.
