My name is Lisa and I’m a 48 year old woman from East Boston, MA. I was diagnosed as having metastatic breast cancer (already spread to bone) on May 1 of last year (2018).

Liver scan after finding new growths after cat scan?
I had breast cancer in 2015. Beat it. Had APL leukemia in 2017. Beat it. Found out in Nov 2018 that my breast cancer had metastasized to my sternum. Went on Ibrance, Xgeva, and faslodex. My cancer markers dropped dramatically. Then, at my June labs, it showed that my cancer markers had nearly doubled

Newly-Approved Drug for HR+, HER2- PI3K Mutant MBC
