Different metastasis tumors
Has anybody got this or heard of this? So I went to my onc today. I’m only on my second cycle of ibrance and letrozole. The appointment was going well. Just asking about any pains, anything new. I told him I couldn’t really tell any difference since taking the ibrance. I am still having pains in my breast

New to MBC, diagnosed early December, conflict with original oncologist. Now with one I have all the confidence in.
Went through bc and mastectomy in2003 and 2008. Fine till Mar of 2018. Thought all through 2018 needed hip replacement. Wrong MRI and all other show widespread cancer in bones, connect the dot type in spine, hips and skull. Luckily not in organs. Waiting on radiologist eval, and waiting to start Verzenio

CLL is no longer dormant
I live in Hamilton and being followed by a Hematologist at Mc Master. I have had my condition for 8 years and have never had a risk assessment. I had another blood test done and I am seeing my specialist Tuesday. This last year has not been so good . Should I request a Fish test, CT scan etc or what

New invasive on mastectomy side.
I am new to this site and to metastatic breast cancer. I had a mastectomy 12 years ago for Dcis. Unfortunately I have now fallen into the less than 2% of people who get a cancer from the less than 5% of breast tissue left behind. I found fullness and a mass in the arm pit. Anyone else have this experience

PET scan on Thursday. Again
Hi, Another PET scan this Thursday. Wish me luck. I hate all these scans. My last one was in August and showed "partial responce" to ibrance, faslodex and exgeva. Tumor markers have been fluctuating again between 55 in August to 68 in November now 57 again. Hopefully this scan will show improvement.

Feeling type of way
I was talking to an ex-coworker who fought breast cancer in 2016. I told her that I was dx with stage IV. She kept saying she was blessed, all she had to get was a lumpectomy. It made me feel feel a little jealous. I’m happy for her but it was her tone and she said it multiple times. 🤷🏽♀️

Flap surgery
Hi there I had a chemo, mastectomy, radiation and now reconstruction on Tuesday. I decided to get the flap surgery instead of implant. Since I had radiation and skin isn’t same plus you will have to get another surgery in 5 years. Has anyone ever had the flap surgery where they use belly fat instead

Oncology appointment
Went for my tamoxifen review yesterday, started badly as I could have been seen at the hospital where I had my surgery which is ten minutes away from home instead of going into the centre of Bristol. However he gave me the options I was expecting, stay on tamoxifen, change to another tablet, he was going
