Natera results

good morning!

I’ve been on ibrance 100 mg and anastrezole for just shy of 3 years for MBC. My natera results have been steady at 0 now they are 0.12…I spoke to my oncologist and I go in next week for my monthly check up. She said they will run it again. My scans and tumor markers have been great. Oh well they are always so calm. So I am too! I’ve done so well on my med combination. I get an xgeva shot once a month. Bone lesions are filled in no new ones. I almost made it to 10 years with NED . I’m 70 and will just keep moving forward 😊

Hoping for good news for you at your appointment. Sounds like you are doing well. My doctor always said small fluctuations sometimes happen and that they get concerned when the markers keep going up each time. Best wishes to you.

Natera? Never heard of that for mbc. Thought it was just for colorectal.

You are doing marvelously. Envious.

Thank you for your post. You have given me hope! I am beginning my treatment for breast cancer that has metastasized to my bones and it is heartening to hear that treatment can repair in some way the damage the cancer has done to my bones.

Hi, you are going well. That’s great news. Does the Signatera test for mutations? I guess that gives guidance for treatments .

How often do they do blood tests?

I was thinking about getting it.

Thanks , best wishes. 💖
