Hi Pam,
Yes I'm as surprised as you are in not getting any more responses. Thanks for replying anyway. So how invasive are your bone mets? After discovery and fusion of L3 we had had a lot of trouble finding an agreeable hormone. Tried aromasin then tamoxifen and now exemestane. Zometa started 4 months ago with decreasing side effects. The afinitor (10mg) has been the main problem. I'm now in hospital with what looks like side effects from it. Once everything is sorted and back on track will go back on 5mg of afinitor. The worst part was the breathlessness and inability to do anything. Couldn't walk more than 50 metres without huffing and puffing.
Oncologist admitted me to hospital as he was very concerned, for which i am thankful.
My bone mets began in L3 which we thought was where it was contained. But over the 3 mth interval from ct bne scan previously mets progressed to T12,T11,T9,T8,and C5 with spot n ribs posteriorly in T9 and T8. So it was very disconcerting to hear the results.
Having obs done so will check out till later, Sue
