Hi Chris, thank you for replying. My oncologist literally just lets my dermatologist deal with it. She says this happens with some breast cancer patients. I can sit here and just literally watch them grow on me. Some of them are smooth and some of them it’s the rough ones that generally turn out to be melanoma when I first found them I figured I’ll just let them go and my doctor said no you won’t because we don’t need to worry about fighting another type of cancer at the same time. So I get them all removed and have a little divots, but at least they take all the cancer away for a little while until another one pops up I have met liver, lungs, bones, lymph nodes breast, and this is a reoccurrence from 2011 so I had quite a few good years , I’ve been through Ibrance and I’m now on a tour which seems to be physically working OK but I don’t know if it’s actually working yet I go on 10 January to get a CT and see if there’s been any progress or if it’s coming back, so that’s gonna be the determining factor as to whether or not I stay on this current oral chemo. Thank you for reaching out to me. Blessings to you and your family. Have a wonderful Christmas. I know I will Maria.
