Hi @maggie14 - good news that your bone mets are stable. That's just about the most we can ask for and for those analgesics to relieve the pain and the recommended hormone treatment to do it's job !
Your story is so similar to mine - initial bc in 2003 and then bony mets diagnosis only after months of physio (you have sciatica) etc etc. This was all from my GP, breast surgeon (annual check up when I have my mammogram) - all said the same thing.
It can be so frustrating, annoying and I know I placed a lot of blame on myself for not being such a strong advocate of my own health and pushing for bone scans earlier.
Never mind - don't look back - look forward and onwards and upwards.
Best wishes to your ongoing good health.
