I hope you are safe from those Devastating Boulder fires. If you get second opinion from doctor in Pueblo or Colorado Springs, please let me know. I have MBC stage 4 and think I am thought of as just a number with no cure. I feel like you do with my current situation. Thank you.

I have noticed you are really struggling with side effects. “No cure” doesn’t mean you have to accept feeling like a number. Have you considered getting another opinion on your treatments? Are you near a teaching hospital or large cancer center?

I'm so sorry to hear about your diagnosis. I am stage 3 and I have not idea where I am on this. I just want to ask the right questions about the follow up treatment as my oncologist just matter of fact said, "I think you'll benefit from this" without really telling me the why. I wish you the best and Happy New Year.
