Metastatic breast cancer: Anyone else?
Breast Cancer | Last Active: Mar 12 3:44pm | Replies (213)Comment receiving replies
Confirming diagnosis this week. Found a distortion on r breast in September 3d mammogram, continues to find that I needed a mastectomy. Three lymph nodes removed from the armpit. Was to start chemo and then diverted to Pet scan. Found suspicious spots in my hips. Having a bone biopsy on Wed. The current plan is hormone treatment for 6 months, then chemo if not responding. The spots found were pin prick size.
Had lumpectomy 4 yrs ago on l side. Caught by surprise to reoccur.
Anyone here with Mba? Feeling a little scared and uncertain.

Jacsmom, I can imagine that you're feeling uncertain and scared to have the confirmation of metastasis. You'll see that you're not alone. There are others here to support you as you prepare for your bone biopsy coming up and the path ahead. Feel free to ask questions and share your feelings. We're listening.
