Stage 4 Bone Mets with bone marrow infiltration

Hello

 

I would be really keen to speak to someone who has been diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer that has spread to the bone and also the bone marrow.

 

Anyone else with the same diagnosis?

    I have just found your post (I'm a member of the Breastcancernow forum) and I'm sorry you've had to wait so long for a response but there aren't very many of us around.

    I was diagnosed in September 2019 straight to stage 4 with mets in my bones, bone marrow and lymph nodes. In October 2020 a scan revealed new metastasis in my peritoneum which had spread further by the end of January resulting in a change of medication.

    At the beginning I was put on letrozole and abemaciclib, but I didn't tolerate the abemaciclib and it was stopped after one cycle. I continued on letrozole alone until it stopped working for me. I take exemestane now and I'm due a scan in June to see if it's working.

    If I can be of help because I'm a few more steps down the road, let me know.

    best wishes
