Has anyone had SBRT?
Hi everyone - so my mom was diagnosed with Stage IV metastatic breast cancer with 2 tumors in her bone - T2 & L4 regions. She is considering doing radiation - an oncologist said today she has 2 approaches - a conservative approach and then SBRT. Risks of SBRT are nerve damage, paralysis, and bone damage

New here; lumps from Fulvestrant; fatigue solution
I came here first because I thought Ibrance + Fulvestrant, which have worked miraculously on my stage 4 MBC, had suddenly stopped working after 18 months. After a week-end of panic due to results of PET scan, received a call from oncologist saying she thought the radiologist was wrong; it was nothing

Liver Injury and tamoxifen
I recently checked on my understanding that tamoxifen use was not associated with liver dysfunction. It seems that I misremembered what I read. Although other cancer medications may have more serious negative effects on the liver, tamoxifen use also may result in liver problems. Some of you may find

Xeloda failed after only 2 cycles
I have to say that I am beside myself. My first scans on Xeloda show increase size and number in Liver Tumors. This is the 3rd drug that has failed for me in the past 6 months. Ibrance, then Piqray now Xeloda. I am really worried. I spoke with my oncologist yesterday and there are 3 classes of IV Chemos

Any cases of MBC being successfully treated with Fenbendazole or Mebendazole (the dog deworming protocol?)
Hello, I am wondering if anyone has used this protocol specifically for MBC and had good results? I have found stories online about it helping for other types of cancers but have yet to find if breast cancer is one of the cancers it could help with. Please let me know if anyone has direct experience

Breast monitoring
I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer 3 years ago and due to me taking part in the Genome 1000 trial I also found out that I was BRCA 2+. Because of this I was told that I would be monitored for breast cancer each year with a mammogram and consultation. I went for my yearly check yesterday, had a mammogram

Moving need help finding a new oncologist
I have been reading this site for a while, but this is my first post. I was diagnosed with BC in 2013, had a mastectomy and reconstruction in 2014. I did not have any chemo or radiation. In June of 2019 I found a lump on my head that was diagnosed as metastatic breast cancer. A scan showed a few spots

Info on clinical trial with "Oral Faslodex/Fulvestrant"?
Hi everyone, After 3.5 years of positive response on Ibrance/Letrozole, my wife has seen some progression--so yesterday, she began a new clinical trial (ACT16105) which is a Phase II trial of SAR439859, a Sanofi compound. From my (limited!) understanding, this is an attempt to develop an oral Selective

Menopause and Endo
I had 2 laparoscopies in that time, and on both occasions no Endo was found. 4 years ago I was diagnosed with
breast
cancer, had a mastectomy and
reconstruction
, which meant more surgery on my stomach, more scarring etc. I have been in such terrible, almost unbearable pain since.

Does Taxol work?
I have been to see my oncologist today to discuss starting Taxol. I was assured this may help hold back my cancer, which is spreading) but I cannot be cured. I know this but I need to know if anyone else on weekly Taxol had encouraging results. I still have 3 tumours and a couple of small tumours in
