I had stage iv with mets to bones and liver 8 months ago. My typo is ++-. My oncologist planned chemotherapy at first, but I am reluctant to take it and showed her other therapies. Then she changed it to Target Therapy. What therapy did you take and are you taking? Looks like your treatment is right for you.

Your question was not directed to me but, in my case, I was diagnosed with ER/PR+, HER2 low MBC with mets to bones. My 1st line of therapy was a CDK4/6 inhibitor (verzenio) and an aromatase inhibitor (anastrozole). After progression on bones, I was given another CDK4/6i (Kisqali) and Faslodex.

I would ask:
1. How big the liver mets are. Can they use local radiotherapy or ablation on them? Surgical removal? Pros/Cons of each.
2. Are you HER2 negative or low?

Here are some resources if you'd like to take a look at:
1. PDF files at the bottom of the page: https://www.mbcalliance.org/new-to-mbc/
