Hi @18dee,

You may notice that I moved your discussion and combined it with this existing discussion on metastatic breast cancer. I did this as I thought it might be beneficial for you to meet other members who are talking about this type of cancer.
If you click on VIEW & REPLY in your email notification, you will see the whole discussion and can join in, meet, and participate with other members talking about their or their loved ones' experiences.

I can imagine that you are worried. I'm tagging @wandering @rae3 @joancecilia2017 @tula @theda to get their thoughts. According to this information about bone metastasis, "Bone pain is often the first symptom of cancer that has spread to the bone. The pain may come and go at first. It tends to be worse at night and may get better with movement.

@18dee, has your doctor prescribe any bone-building medications for the osteoporosis?

Thank you for moving my post for me as I now have had a very good response. Yes I have been on fosamax for many years (long before my breast cancer diagnosis), due to first osteopenia and now osteoporosis. We have a lot of various arthritis’ on both my mother’s and father’s side of the family. Will be anxious to see what my next bone and CT scans show in October after being off the Letrozole.
