Hi there, so sorry to hear what you are dealing with! I am in the same boat as @mom23boys , diagnosed stage 4 de nova June 2020 at 54. First line of treatment stopped working after 19 months, the next two didn’t work but as of November 1 I am in a trial with a new med that so far has shrunk the lesions. Aside from 2-3 days feeling lousy the remaining 4 weeks each month I am living my life (almost) normally. Don’t lose hope there are many, many treatment options and new ones coming all the time. Also I agree with whoever said don’t let your tumour markers going up scare you, mine were normal when diagnosed stage 4 and went up later in treatment for an unknown reason and are now normal again. Stay strong, stay hopeful and know that you are not alone in the battle!!!

My cancer team just found new mets after 17 successful months on faslodex and verzenio. I’m in the process of starting a new treatment plan. Would you mind sharing what is working for you?
thanks!
