Dear Debe, Nobody knows how long you have to live and many ladies who have IBC have surprised everyone by living years beyond what they were told they would so why can't you be one of those people.
I also have been told that the average person with what I have could live from 18 to 36 months depending on how my treatment goes. I'm stage 4 and was diagnosed July 2010. I have decided that is a benchmark that I will definately pass because it's certainly not long enough for me to do all the things I want to do especially when so much time has been taken up with the treatments. I know its very difficult to be positive when you are told such things without being given any hope. Have you thought about another opinion? Dont give up, there must be someone who is willing to help you.
Love Wendy
