I was diagnosed after having dizzy spells for a week. I assumed it was due to my cancer. That all changed when I woke up in the morning and could not gain my balance and slammed into the wall. It progressed to halo headaches and nausea. Mentioned all of my symptoms to my oncologist. During an mri of my brain they found an issue and I went to see a neurologist. After ct scan, another mri, spinal tap, and EEG they determined it was epilepsy. The EEG was the last test done on May 9.
I was diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer in March 2018. No chemo or radiation. I take Ibrance 100 mg and Letrozole daily. The only surgery I had was to my spine in an effort to stabilize what the metastatic tumors destroyed.
After the cancer diagnosis my family and I made the decision to move into a home together.
