I am distraught and need stories of encouragement.
I started this February on Verzenio and Letrazole after 10 years of initial breast cancer diagnosis due to recurrence. In January we found I had bone and a few liver mets. We biopsied a liver met in January 2022 and it was the original cancer (ER+, HER2-, BRCA2 +) I had my first PET / CT yesterday and unfortunately the liver mets have grown and multiplied and I have more bone mets after only 3 months. My Oncologist would like to start me on taxol to get my disease under control quickly as the cancer is behaving more aggressive than it should. I am 48 years old, in good health etc.
Has anyone else had a similar experience? Anyone with sucess stories? I don't know what to think - losing hope.
Sad in Seattle.
