good to know. I responded to ucla, because my doctors have great urgency while hers does not.
I was told by a nurse in training that once it's in the bones, it affects I forgot what. Even my radiologist said once it's in the bone, it's a death sentence.

There is no factual basis for that comment that once it’s in the bones it’s a death Sentence.
One was wrapped around the bone in my spine (L4) and I’ve been undetectable for 25 months since I had that metastasis zapped with three sessions of SBRT.
I couldn’t tell you how many people I know that have had their bone metastasis zapped and are still around years later. One guy who had multiple sessions and more than 12 bone mets and is still around a couple years later with no issues.
Dr. Scholz, who is one of the leaders of the PCRI conferences, has Based a lot of his practice on treating people who have metastasis with SBRT and saying they will go on to live normal lives. He prefers to wait until they show up in a pet scan and then zap them.
